Lemon, Bacon and Almond Brussels Sprouts Salad

I love Brussels sprouts and I'm always looking for ways to turn them into a meal that is slightly different than my many roasted versions. This salad is a fresh but delicious take on yet another way to get your greens.

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper

1 lb Brussels sprouts trimmed and very thinly sliced (I use my food processor's blade)

1 small head of romaine, chopped

2 oz Pecorino Romano shaved

1/2 cup smoked almonds chopped

1/2 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled

In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oil, 1/2 tsp sea salt and 1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper. Add shredded Brussels sprouts and toss to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes.

1. Add romaine, Pecorino cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped almonds and toss to combine.
