Mediterranean Brussels Sprouts

Submitted by Rinshinomori

"This has become our favorite way to eat brussels sprouts. Some mods made on the Whole Foods recipe. I love the idea of steaming vegetables to get the pure taste coming through. After that, all you need is a dressing or sauce to make it into any style you want. We use an electric steamer to steam the brussels sprouts. And using the machine, it takes about 10-11 minutes of steaming for our taste."

My family loved this dish. It’s delicious and very easy to prepare, plus it’s healthy.

Awesome! The sauce isn't too heavy and it's just enough to coat the sprouts without drowning them. My brussels sprouts were pretty tiny, so I only cut them in halves, I made this just as written and will make this again. Thanx!
