Heat a pan over medium-high heat and let it get good and hot. Add in the sunflower seeds and dry roast them for 1-2 minutes. Add 2 tbsp of balsamic and stir it in with the seeds until it evaporates. As soon as it is gone add the honey and stir for 1-2 minutes. Remove the seeds from the heat once they are toasted and starting to turn a darker brown. Leave them in the pan to cool.
Chop up your kale, brussels and apple. Toss everything in a bowl.
Make your dressing by combining all of the dressing ingredients (3 Tbsp balsamic plus the avocado oil, maple syrup, dijon mustard, salt and pepper) in a small bowl and mixing well.
Add the dressing to the salad and toss well.
Top with the pomegranate and roasted sunflower seeds.
