brussel sprout, pear & goat cheese salad. {grain-free & vegetarian}

12 March 2013

Here is a quick & simple twist on your usual brussel sprouts. For this salad, I keep the sprouts raw, but you could always blanch them for a minute if you prefer. This is hearty, filling, but not too overwhelming...it reminds me of broccoli salad, especially with the play between sweet & savory. You can eat this simply, for lunch or as a side to a roast.
