Ingredients

16 oz package of Ocean Mist Farms Season & Steam Brussels Sprout Halves*
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste
2 tbsp sliced almonds

Caesar Dressing

1/4 cup paleo mayonnaise
1 garlic clove minced
Juice and zest from 1 lemon
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp anchovy paste
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

Open the package of brussels sprouts, and drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Seal, shake to disperse the seasoning, then microwave for 4-5 minutes according to package instructions.
Transfer the brussels sprouts to a baking pan in a single layer and broil for 5 minutes until browned and crispy.
Transfer to a bowl, then in another bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the Caesar dressing.
Pour the dressing over the brussels sprouts and toss to coat.
Sprinkle with sliced almonds, then serve warm.

Notes

*If you can't find these brussels sprouts packages, you can just use fresh brussels sprouts. Steam without seasoning in a steamer basket for 5 minutes. Make sure you are seasoning steamed brussel sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper before you broil them!

Avoid Overcooking: Steam the Brussels sprouts until just tender but still vibrant green to maintain their flavor and texture.

Chill the Dressing: Let the Caesar dressing sit in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before tossing, allowing the flavors to meld and the consistency to stay creamy.

Use a Mix of Raw and Cooked Sprouts: For added texture, combine raw, thinly sliced Brussels sprouts with the roasted ones.

Add Fresh Herbs for Extra Flavor: Toss in freshly chopped herbs like parsley or basil just before serving. This adds a bright, aromatic touch that complements the Caesar dressing and elevates the overall flavor of the salad.
