Kale and Brussels Slaw with Quinoa

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons chopped shallots
• 0.25 cups apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup
• 0.5 cups extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

1. 1

   In a food processor, combine the shallots, vinegar, lemon juice, maple syrup, olive oil, salt and pepper and blend until smooth. Set aside.

2. 2

   Line a small baking sheet with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Set aside.

3. 3

   In a non-stick pan over medium heat, combine the hazelnuts, sugar and cayenne. Stir with a silicone spatula until the sugar has melted and sticks to the nuts, about 5 minutes; turn down the heat to prevent burning if needed. Spread the sticky nuts out on the foil-lined sheet to cool. When the nuts are cool enough to handle, break them up by hand.

4. 4

   Stem the kale and chop well. Using a mandoline, shred the Brussels sprouts, discarding the tough ends. Combine both in a large salad bowl. Add the hazelnuts, quinoa, pomegranate seeds, green onions and cheese. Dress to your liking and serve immediately.
