Stop. Don’t go running away on me after I mention the “b” word. It’s okay. Brussel. Sprouts.

They can actually be an amazing thing, you know! I mean come on, these babies are SMOTHERED in garlic and ginger. Does it get any better that that? Trust me – even the hubs was skeptical about the whole brussel sprouts thing, but after one bite (and a “holy cow”) he ended up LOVING them!

This recipe is SUPER simple: ginger, garlic, brussel sprouts, salt, and a little crushed red pepper flakes. That is it, my friends.

And remember, brussel sprouts are packed with nutrients – they’re basically a veritable multivitamin in vegetable form! You’ll get a healthy dose of vitamins C, K, and A, folate, fiber, and antioxidants all in one serving. That’s a whole lot of goodness for your body in just a tiny little package.

And if you’re worried about calories, fear not young Padawan! Brussel sprouts are low in calories, making them a great choice for weight loss or management. Plus, they’re incredibly versatile – you can roast them, sauté them, boil them, or steam them, and they’ll be delicious every time.

So let’s do this!

Instructions

1. Peel off the outer leaves of the brussel sprouts, trim the stalk, and then halve (or quarter for the large ones) them.
2. Heat 3 tablespoons of the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once, it is nice and hot, add the brussel sprouts. Leave alone for 2-3 minutes allowing to brown, toss and do the same for another 2-3 minutes. Do this one last time for an additional 2-3 minutes. They should be browning up nicely.
3. Add the remaining tablespoon of canola oil along with the garlic and ginger, and stir well. Saute for just a couple minutes. Sprinkle with a little salt, red pepper, and the soy sauce. Stir to combine and serve hot!
