Summer summer summer summer!

It’s finally (almost) here, which means lots of fresh salads and the year that I finally learn how to correctly apply sunscreen like the grown adult that I am.

Memorial Day weekend was spent at my mom’s in North Carolina on the lake. While I thought I had gone the entire weekend – my first one out in the sun after a pasty white Chicago winter – I inevitably got burnt to a crisp on the last day.

Nothing is more embarrassing than donning a nice sun burn. I can feel people judging me for my lack of ability to protect my skin with the correct SPF. Sigh. Accidents happen!!

So by eating lots of this Kale, Brussels Sprouts and Bacon Salad, I’m going to tell myself that I’m getting enough nutrients to repair the damage done to my poor skin.

This is one of my all time favorite salads, and I don’t even like Brussels sprouts that much! The bacon makes it super delicious and the homemade dressing is light and flavorful.

Add in the bite of cheese and crunchy almonds and you’ve got yourself one heck of a delicious side dish. Give this Kale, Brussels Sprouts and Bacon Salad a try next time you want to mix it up from the boring old iceberg!
