How to make

STEP 1
Melt Butter with Olive Oil & Sea Salt in large skillet over medium-low heat. Add bread and pecans. Cook until nuts are fragrant and bread is toasted and golden brown. Remove from heat; set aside.

Combine lemon juice, olive oil and garlic in small bowl. Whisk to combine.

Cut kale into thick ribbons; place into extra-large serving bowl. Add dressing, Brussels sprouts, apple, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Toss until well coated. Right before serving, add toasted bread and nuts.
Tip #1
Salad can be prepared the day before. Just wait to add the toasted bread and nuts until right before serving.
