Author:Ingredients
4 cups Brussels sprouts (about 20 sprouts)
-
3 tablespoons Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil
Salt and pepper to taste
-
Primal Kitchen Ranch Dip
Directions
Bring a pot of water fitted with a steaming basket to a boil. Meanwhile, wash the Brussels sprouts and remove stems and any wilted leaves.
Steam the sprouts for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. While they are steaming, preheat the oven to 425°F.
Once they’re soft, use the bottom of a clean cup or glass to smash each Brussels sprout into a disc about ¼-inch thick on a cutting board.
Arrange the flattened sprouts on a baking sheet and drizzle with avocado oil.
Season the sprouts with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until crispy.
Serve with Ranch Dip. Enjoy!
