Not a fan of Brussel Sprouts? Give these a try. The sweetness of the fruit combined with the seasonings and cheese (yes cheese!) make them a great addition to any meal. This recipes calls for craisins because they are easy to find but feel free to replace them with dried cherries or other dried fruit. If you like a nuttier/crunchy side, then add some toasted almond slivers or walnuts. I use peccorino but any hard cheese works (asiago, romano, parmesan). Want to make it a meal? Add some chickpeas for protein! Be creative and make it your own!
16 oz fresh brussel sprouts
1 TBL Olive oil
4 TBL chopped shallots
1 tsp Thyme (adjust to your liking)
salt/pepper to taste
1/4 cup craisins
6 TBL grated peccorino cheese
Cut the bottoms of the brussel sprouts and slice thin (I use the food processor). In a large pan heat the olive oil. Saute the shallots until slightly softened. Add the brussel sprouts, thyme, salt and pepper and continue to saute until wilted. Mix in the craisins. Grate the peccorino over the top and serve
