Warm Brussel Sprout and Pecan Salad

I am simply loving brussel sprouts these days and have been making lots of delicious salads with them. The recipe that I am sharing is one of the very quick warm salad that I have been making in the past couple of weeks. It is super healthy and delicious, but yet so easy to make.

    I just found my way back to Brussels Sprouts last year after more than a decade of disliking them. This week I found mini Brussels Sprouts at the market and am going to hopefully come up with something nice to go with them as well.
