All this entails is slicing these little sprouts thinly with a food processor (check my little video showing you how here) and sautéing them in a little olive oil. They become almost caramelized this way and the result is simply extraordinary, really!

Ingredients
- 20 brussels sprouts about 1lb
- 2 Tbsp Olive oil
- pinch of coarse salt
- fresh ground pepper to taste
Instructions
-
Rinse the brussels sprouts (I don't even slice off the stem!).
-
Place the brussels sprouts (you may have to cut them in half so they fit in the processor opening) a couple at a time, in a food processor equipped with a top slicing blade and slice finely.
-
Place olive oil in a non-stick pan on the stove on high heat.
-
When hot, sautée the sliced brussels sprouts for a 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
Salt and pepper and serve hot.
I combined this with a wild rice blend straight out of the rice cooker and topped with bits of bacon, toasted almond slivers, and even raisins for the kids. My kiddos (ages 5 & 7) ate their entire bowls and my husband had two helpings. Quick, easy, delicious and nutritious!
OMG…most amazing recipe ever! And I though brussels sprouts were a gift from God before preparing them this way…
Sara–YES YES YES!!!! I know, right?! Thank you so much for your comment bursting with enthusiasm!! LOVE IT!
