Looking for one more vegetable dish for Thanksgiving? Something different? Here’s one that has it all: Shredded Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, Apple and Nuts.
It’s tasty, colorful and easy—after you get passed the chopping. If you have a young sou chef around the house or someone you can trust with a sharp knife, it’s a breeze. Or chop the ingredients yourself ahead of time—with the exception of the apple.
Even the biggest Brussels sprout deniers at your table will be tempted to try this savory mixture. It has all the flavor and texture we look for in a good veggie dish: it’s crunchy, tart, sweet, fruity, and porky. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
Senator Carnahan, what a nice food blog. The brussels sprout recipe sounds delightful. I was introduced to this site by my brother, Louis Hamilton. My son Justin Hamilton worked for you in you Washington D.C. office. Best wishes to you and your family this Thanksgiving season – I share your love of cooking and food history.
With deepest respect,
Marc Hamilton
