Wash the Brussels sprouts and trim the ends. Slice them thinly or shred them using a food processor or sharp knife.
Wash the curly kale, remove the tough stems, and chop the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the hazelnuts until they are golden and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Let them cool, then roughly chop.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, fresh thyme, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
