What to Do

1. Prepare brussel sprouts by thinly slicing with a knife or mandolin, and add to a medium sized serving bowl. Do the same with the onion.
2. Heat a pan to medium-high heat and add raw pecans. Add a teaspoon of butter and a sprinkle of salt, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes or until they are browned nicely. Let cool, roughly chop, and add to salad
3. Chop your apple and add to the salad, along with the crumbled blue cheese.
4. Start preparing your dressing by combining lemon, dijon, and honey in a bowl. Whisk while slowly adding olive oil. Add salt and pepper and whisk more, until creamy texture is reached. Add a splash of water and mix.
