Brussels Sprouts

Weird post, I know. But, I feel like this veggie gets bad press. It's pretty delicious! I mean, who doesn't love a tiny cabbage? It's makes a great side dish, but if you're having company, I would check to make sure they don't have any childhood baggage related to this vegetable first.

Basic Brussels Sprouts
by Lori Lewis

1 lb. brussels sprouts, stems chopped off and sprouts cut in half
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 c. olive oil
1 can low sodium chicken broth

Heat olive oil in a skillet and add Brussels sprouts and garlic. Saute until Brussels sprouts turn a slightly more vivid green. Add chicken broth to the pan and simmer until Brussels sprouts reach desired tenderness (I like mine with a little crunch left in them). Serves 3-4.

This is them hanging out in the chicken broth after having been sauteed.
