Ingredients

  • 1/2 teaspoons Celtic sea salt
  • 1 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1 tablespoons honey
  • grinds black pepper
  • 1 tablespoons quality brown mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1/2 white onion
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1/2 Granny Smith apple
  • 1/2 cup green grapes
  • 1/2 cup almonds
  • 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts

Instructions

1

Step 1

Cut the brussels sprouts in half, core and thinly slice.

2

Step 2

Do the same with the Granny Smith apple, slicing into matchsticks. The peel doesn’t bother me, so I keep it on. Grab a handful of grapes and quarter them, you should end up with about a half cup.

3

Step 3

Chop the half cup of almonds.

4

Step 4

Finely dice the white onion. Scallions would work too if you prefer a more mild onion flavor… though the white did not overpower.

5

Step 5

Combine in a large bowl before adding the chicken.

6

Step 6

I used a rotisserie chicken when I wrote this recipe and would recommend it, however, roasting your own works just as well. Chop cooled chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and add to the salad.

7

Step 7

Whipping up the vinaigrette takes seconds. Add all ingredients, except the avocado oil, to a small bowl and whisk. Stream in the avocado oil last, whisking until smooth.

8

Step 8

Pour over the salad and toss to bring together.
