Sauteed Brussels Sprouts with Rosemary and Pine Nuts
I don't even think I liked brussels sprouts until this last year. Actually not sure I even tried them until then to be honest with you. I don't know what brought on the change, I think I may have gotten them in my bountiful basket once and had to figure out how to use them.
They sort of became my "aha", just like cabbage was a while back, and I have been in love with them ever since. I love them halved, shredded, raw or cooked. And they are so healthy for you!!
This is my current favorite way to eat brussels sprouts. Shredded, sauteed with a little sprinkle of this and that and voila! you have yourself a delicious salad. My husband isn't a fan of rosemary, but I got him to try and he even liked them!!
Sauteed Brussels Sprouts with Rosemary and Pine Nuts
1 lb. brussles sprouts, woody ends trimmed, outer leaves discarded
olive oil
salt/pepper
1 - 1 1/2 tsp. dried rosemary
1/4 cup pine nuts
grated Parmesan or Asiago cheese
Prepare brussels sprouts, then thinly shred them by either using a sharp knife, mandoline slicer or a food processor.
In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil on medium high heat. Add shredded sprouts and toss to coat, then add rosemary. Saute only about 3-4 minutes, tossing frequently to prevent burning. The last 30-60 seconds, add in the pinenuts and saute. Remove from heat, add salt and pepper to taste. Top with fresh grated cheese.
Serve warm or room temperature.
