JUDI’S RECIPES – WEEK #20

October 18, 2016

Hi Everybody,

What crazy weather! I guess we should enjoy these unusually warm temperatures. They aren’t going to last much longer.

This week we are getting Brussels Sprouts and I don’t know about you, but I’m getting tired of just roasting them all the time. Here’s a good recipe for caramelized sprouts with nuts. Try it – you’ll like it!

CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH PISTACHIOS

1 lb. brussels sprouts, washed and trimmed

3 TBS melted unsalted butter

1 small red onions cut into strips

3 TBS red wine vinegar

1/2 TBS sugar

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup coarsely chopped pistachios


  1. Place Brussels sprouts in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover the saucepan and steam 8-10 minutes or until the Brussels sprouts are tender yet crisp. Drain.
  2. Melt the butter in a deep skillet, add the onions and 2 tablespoons of vinegar. Cook until the onions brown.
  3. Add the Brussels sprouts, sugar and remaining vinegar. Saute over medium heat until the Brussels sprouts are lightly caramelized.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with pistachios. Enjoy!

I hope you love this one as much as I do.

have a delicious week!

Best,

Judi
