    Brussels sprouts sautéed and flavored with lemon and garlic make a fantastic side dish for any holiday or dinner party!
    Sautéed Lemon & Garlic Brussels Sprouts Recipe...An easy, delicious side dish! | cookincanuck.com #healthy

    How often have you walked away from a holiday meal or dinner party raving about the side dishes far more than the entrée? Maybe it was an unbelievable winter salad or some easy herbed potatoes. For me those are the dishes that usually cause my friends to beg mercilessly for the recipe.

    Okay, I don't make them beg for long. Usually just long enough for them to promise me a great bottle of wine in return. Okay, just kidding. Maybe.

    I wish I could claim full ownership of this recipe, but the real credit goes to Gaby of What's Gaby Cooking. You might remember that I featured a fantastic recipe (Poached Eggs Over Avocado & Smoked Salmon) from her cookbook, Absolutely Avocados. If you or someone you love is an avocado lover, you MUST get her cookbook!

    But back to Brussels sprouts. Clearly Gaby knows what she's doing with these veggies, too!

    These lemon and garlic drenched sports have the simplest of flavors, but can really "wow" your guests. As the Brussels sprouts cook in the pan, they take on a lovely caramelization, which is not only pretty to look at, but lends an extra layer of flavor that turn this vegetable from mundane to memorable.

        I'm so glad Brussels sprouts are back in style again. I remember they used to be given the side eye but everyone loves them now! Love the addition of lemon and garlic...yum!

        Brussel spouts are such an under rated vegetable! They are SO good!

        Yeah, I don't think I've ever raved about turkey or ham. It's just boring compared to the other stuff! And I love the lemon and garlic here. Makes them sound way better than normal brussels sprouts. 🙂

        I love brussells sprouts and I have surprisingly gotten my family AND my non veggie eating inlaws to love them too. It's all about how they get cooked and these ones sound fab.

        I am a total side dish lover, mainly because I do not eat meat, so this recipe is speaking to my heart. Love the simplicity of it as well, citrus and brussels is a dynamite combo!
