Trying Brussels Sprouts Again - Tasty Brussels Sprout Recipe
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008
I remember trying to eat the Brussels sprouts my mom prepared while growing up. I thought they were horrible little bitter, mushy, smelly cabbage balls. My sister recently cooked a Brussels sprout stir-fry that I fell in love with and find myself preparing this recipe once a week.
Brussels sprouts are very nutritious and add fiber and antioxidants to your diet. It is important on your quest for getting in shape after 40 to start adding new more flavorful vegetable recipes to our diets.
Stir-Fry Brussels Sprout Recipes
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. butter
7 - 8 fresh Brussels sprouts
1 small yellow squash
1/2 cup sliced almonds
Slice the Brussels sprouts like a tomato and chop up each slice. Melt the butter & olive oil in a skillet and saute the Brussels sprouts for about 5 minutes. Add the squash and saute about 2 minutes more. Add the almonds and continue sauteing for another couple minutes. This is really good with a little bit of fresh lemon and parmesan cheese. Don’t forget to season with salt & pepper.
Enjoy and try this new Brussels spout recipe this week!
