Ingredient Notes
Brussels Sprouts. Fresh sprouts are the very best in this recipe.
Olive oil. avocado oil or butter are good substitutes.
Garlic powder. If desired, you can substitute 1 teaspoon minced garlic for the half teaspoon garlic powder. However, I like the way the powder coats the sprouts.
StoreStore leftover sautéed Brussels sprouts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
