Garlic Brussell Sprouts

Submitted by Jax from Raviolis & Waterworks.

(1) Pkg Brussell Sprouts

(6) Cloves of Garlic – Minced

(1) Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil

(1) Tbsp Red Pepper Flakes

Bring a large pot of water to a rigorous boil.

Meanwhile, thoroughly clean the Brussell Sprouts.  Once cleaned and dried, cut them in halves.

The largest turn off from these yummy veggies is the consistency, cutting them in half helps.

Put the cut Brussell Sprouts in the water and boil for about 12-15 minutes.

The vegetable should turn to a very pretty light green color once it has been sufficiently boiled.

Strain and set aside.

In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil.

Sauté the garlic and the red pepper flakes in the olive oil until it is a light brown color.

Add the Brussell Sprouts, stirring them into the garlic mixture until they are well coated.

Sauté for an additional 5 minutes.

Serve hot.

This is Mushy’s favorite.  In her words “yummy, yummy, yummy”.

Spiced Pecans
Submitted by Betsy from My Five Men

(2) cup pecan halves

(1/4) cup brown sugar

(1/4) cup melted butter

(4) tsp hot sauce, like Cholula

(1) tsp salt

(1/2) tsp pepper

Spray cookie sheet with oil.  Mix all ingredients and spread in a single layer on sheet.

Bake 350* for 12 minutes, stirring once half way through.

Coating will harden as it cools.  

These are mildly hot and spicy but nicely balanced with the brown sugar.  Very addictive!
