5. Sauté for a couple of minutes then add the rosemary sprigs.
6. Season with the salt and pepper and continue to sauté until the Brussels sprouts begin to brown and become crispy.
7. Sprinkle the pumpkin seeds and almonds and continue to sauté for another minute or two, until the seeds begin to brown.
SERVING
8. Serve the wonderfully healthy and delicious veggies at room temperature over a bed of tossed greens and garnish with your favorite salad toppings and a vinaigrette dressing. This makes a great side dish
9. Or you can serve it over a bowl of rice, millet or quinoa as a main.
NOTE
You might want to remove the rosemary sprigs before eating because the stems can be a bit woody.
If you don’t have pumpkin seeds or almonds try adding sunflower seeds, pine nuts or even walnuts and pecans. Any combo will work.
