Yummy, easy shredded brussels sprouts



Possibly the most dreaded winter vegetable on earth, and one of my favorites. My friend Emily brought over some devastatingly delicious brussels sprouts last week, and this was my attempt at re-creating her dish. It turned out totally different, but fabulous!

1 lb Brussels Sprouts
2 slices bacon
1/4 cup almonds
1/4 white onion
2 cloves garlic
1 TBSP butter
1/2 tsp wine vinegar or lemon juice
Salt and pepper

Slice the brussels sprouts into 1/4" circles

Slice the onion thinly

Chop the garlic

Sliver the almonds

Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside. Add the butter (if your bacon was lean, otherwise, if you have a lot of grease, you might want to skip it) and the almonds and garlic. Sautee until they start to turn a bit golden, then add the onions and brussels sprouts. Cook until just translucent and limp, and add vinegar or lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Chop the bacon into small pieces and stir in. Many easy and much yum, very wow!
