SAVORY THAI NOODLES WITH SEARED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Make the sauce: In a blender or bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix until smooth. It should be thick but pourable like barbecue sauce; add water as needed to thin it out.
• Cook noodles for stir-frying according to the package directions; they should be slightly underdone. After draining, rinse well with cold water to stop the cooking. Toss noodles in 1 teaspoon coconut oil to prevent sticking.

GRILLED SAVORY BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Cut brussels sprouts in half. Place sprouts in the middle of a large piece of aluminum foil (to make a packet for grilling). I usually put 10 sprouts in each packet. Dot butter over the sprouts, then sprinkle with the seasoning salt, bacon and garlic powder. Drizzle small amount of olive oil over the top and close up the foil packet (making sure you pull up all of the sides so that the butter does not leak out during cooking). Grill packets for 10 minutes over medium-high heat. After cooking is complete, place the veggies in a bowl and mix them up so that the butter/flavorings coat all the tasty brussels sprouts.
