In trying to keep a healthy lifestyle, part of your diet would be vegetables. But bland vegetables just don't cut it. These healthy foods need to be jacked up now and then or we will get bored with them. I have seen a couple of recipes lately on sauteed brussel sprouts and came up with my own variation. In this side dish I make vast use of my French-Asian infused culinary talents.
Start with sauteing a couple cloves of chopped garlic and 1/2 cup of chopped onion in olive oil. Take about a pound of fresh brussel sprouts, wash, cut off the stems and slice them in half. If you wish, you can quarter them or slice them, but in the end they peel apart anyway. Add and saute the brussel sprouts for about 15 to 20 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally. Taste test them to see if they are soft and done. Next, add 1 tablespoon of Soy Sauce and 1 tablespoon of Grey Poupon, (my extent of French-Asian culinary). Continue to saute for another couple of minutes, then salt and pepper to taste. A little bit of bacon bits won't hurt either. I don't know how healthy this is but it is a great way to eat the Sprouts
