Recipe:

Brussle Sprouts-enough said right? Well I have been scared to try them for 27 years. I dont know why- I love asparagus, broccoli, grilled lettuce etc...so I bought a brussle spout salad at Trader Joes to try. I figure the flavor is much more mellow when raw so- why not. It. Is. Delish. Maybe my new favorite cold salad...and because the "greens" are not as wilty as lettuce, you can dress it a couple days in advance and it stays great in the fridge and tastes even better. So here's the recipe- for all you brussle sprout fearfulls, I urge you to give it a shot. They are friendly and amazing.

THINLY slice the brussle spouts so they are about the thickness of lettuce and break them apart
dried cranberries and or cherries
hazelnuts chopped up (could probably use any nut and be equally delish).
uncured chopped up bacon
raspberry vinegarette.

Thats it. Crazy simple and probably people wouldnt even know they were eating brussle sprouts. Yum-o
