Brussel Sprouts With Cranberries Hazelnuts Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup hazelnuts, chopped

2 pounds brussel sprouts

2 tablespoons butter or cooking oil

1/2 cup dried cranberries soaked in hot water for 20 minutes OR 1/2 cup fresh chopped cranberries

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons dijon mustard

salt & pepper

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400 F.

Toast the hazelnuts on a cookie sheet for 10 minutes, turning several times.

Remove the bottom of the brussel sprouts (along with any discolored leaves) and make a cross on the bottom.

Soak brussel sprouts in slightly salty water for 10 minutes (I skip this step frequently).

Steam brussel sprouts for 8 minutes. Then rinse with cold water.

Cut brussel sprouts into bit-sized portions, if desiered.

Melt butter (or oil) in skillet and cook brussel sprouts for 3 minutes.

Mix in honey, mustard, cranberries, nut, salt & pepper. Cook for 5-8 minutes.
