Cooking is a lot about taking risks, trying different things and discovering new ways to think about how we eat and prepare our food. That’s why we came up with this vegetable-heavy, not-so-salad salad, replacing your typical lettuce with...Brussels sprout leaves! Tossed with a captivating—and colourful—combo of sugar snap peas, apple, avocado, radishes and soft pink slivers of seared salmon, this visual feast is topped with torn basil for a herbaceous hit in every balanced bite.

In a pot of boiling salted water, cook the Brussels sprouts and sugar snap peas for 2 minutes or until al dente. Cool in ice water. Drain.

In a non-stick skillet over high heat, cook the salmon in 1 tbsp (15 ml) of the oil for 2 minutes per side or until the salmon is cooked but still pink inside. Season with salt and pepper. Drain on a paper towel. Flake the fish into large pieces.

In a bowl, combine the remaining olive oil with the lemon juice, dill and radishes.

On a serving platter, arrange the Brussels sprout leaves, sugar snap peas, salmon, apple and avocado. Drizzle with the vinaigrette. Garnish with the basil.
