NUTTY WARM BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD
Originally from Cooking Light but tweaked to our preferences. Have also sprinkled on some recipe#463068 instead of the nuts. Haven't done this yet but think you could make the gratin ahead and the brussels sprouts and keep two aspects separate, then reheat the sprouts in microwave and assemble-just don't put the gratin in until serving or it will turn into mush.

Tips:
- Trim the Brussels sprouts properly: Cut off the woody ends and remove any yellow or wilted leaves.
- Use fresh Brussels sprouts: Fresh Brussels sprouts have a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture.

- Season the Brussels sprouts well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Add some crunch: Add some chopped walnuts or pecans to the Brussels sprouts for a crunchy texture.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Garnish the Brussels sprouts with fresh parsley or thyme before serving.
