Sautéed Brussels Sprouts with Walnuts

walnuts

🥗Healthier: pecans

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Pecans offer a similar flavor with healthier fats.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated Pecorino

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor without dairy.

In a large straight-sided skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat, add the onion, and cook until almost tender, about 5 minutes.

Add the garlic. Once it is sizzling, add the Brussels sprouts and season with the salt and red pepper flakes.

Sprinkle with the vinegar, reduce heat to medium, and cook, covered, until golden and tender, about 18 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add a couple of tablespoons of water at any point if it seems they’re sticking to the pan.

Add the walnuts, and cook, stirring just until combined, about 1 minute.

Remove garlic and serve hot.
