My son kept asking me to buy these at the store, but I always had it in my mind that they didn't taste good, so...kept putting it off. Finally, I gave in, and bought a bag. Not knowing how to really prepare them, I realized...these sprouts looked like little heads of lettuce, and that's where I got my inspiration. I'm happy to say, my mind has been changed, and we gladly welcome these tasty bites onto our dinner table! Ingredients:
15 -20 brussels sprouts (mine come in a bag from trader joe's) |
balsamic vinegar |
extra virgin olive oil |
1 tablespoon seasoning (or more, if you desire) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Trim Sprouts and cut in each one in half. Place into boiling water for 2-3 minutes to blanch.
3. Remove sprouts and lay flat side up on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper (makes for easy clean up).
4. starting with balsamic vinegar, drizzle desired amount over the tops of the the sprouts (this gives it great flavor).
5. sprinkle desired seasonings next (I've used Mrs. Dash - garlic blend, or an organic mix from Costco).
6. drizzle olive oil over the top (doesn't have to be too much), like you were dressing a salad.
7. Place sheet into the oven for 20 minutes (or until soft).
8. Serve warm.
