Warm Roasted Brussels Sprout Apple Salad with Blue Cheese and Pecans Recipe

This Warm Roasted Brussels Sprout Apple Salad with Blue Cheese and Pecans is a wonderful holiday side dish, popping with color.

Recently, I bought some brussels sprouts and apples with the intention of making my Tangy Brussels Sprouts and Apple Salad, but things took a turn in the kitchen on that bone chilling day. I was craving a warm salad, not a cold one. Both use brussels sprouts and apples, but I wound up with a completely different dish.

I actually tossed both the brussels sprouts and apples in a hot oven to roast, then I made a reduced balsamic vinegar honey dressing. Reduced balsamic vinegar is so easy to make and it makes just about any tangy dish seem extra decadent (did you see my Prosciutto Wrapped Goat Cheese Stuffed Dates with Balsamic Vinegar Glaze?).

With the holiday season in full tilt, I topped this warm salad with toasted pecans, pomegranate seeds, and crumbled blue cheese, before drizzling some of the balsamic vinegar glaze on top. I think I ate half of this salad after I finished photographing it. It was so good…sweet, salty, warm, crunchy…just lots going on in every bite. Enjoy!
