Instructions
Salad
Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread the pecans on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle the maple syrup on them. Add a generous pinch of sea salt and mix lightly. Place in preheated oven to roast for 12 minutes. Set aside.
Bring the lentils, broth (or salt water) and bay leaf to a boil in a small saucepan. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes on low heat, or until lentils are al dente. Strain, set aside and keep warm.
Chop the green onions and peel the petals off the brussels sprouts.
In a large bowl, combine the cranberries, lentils, green onion and half of the dressing and mix well. Add the brussels sprout leaves and mix again carefully. Sprinkle with caramelized pecans.
Serve and drizzle with more dressing.
