I'm not kidding. I shredded and quick sauteed the last Brussels sprouts out of my garden and they were delicious. This was a raggedy plant that had been growing all winter and I finally cut down Saturday morning and trimmed all of the possibly-edible parts off of. (No pictures of that I'm afraid.) They were leafing out and covered with aphids, but I persevered and took them home.

The cleaned sprouts, not much like the grocery store are they? |
 |
Thinly shredded with a knife... |
 |
And into a hot frying pan with some olive oil. |
All I did was stir them around until just tender, maybe two minutes, maybe less. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Delicious nutty and slightly sweet greens for supper. |
Such an easy way to get your vegetables! You could dress them up with bread crumbs or cheese or put them in a fusion taco or all sorts of things.
And speaking of cheese, I found this one at Safeway and it was really good. I'm going to post a picture so I remember what it was! It is called Orange Windmill Cablanca goat cheese. It was kinda expensive, $9 for 8 oz, but good enough to be worth it.

Tasty cheese. Look for it at Safeway! |
Ok, that's all the food for tonight. Go eat some stir-fried brassica! Maybe I'll try shredding broccoli next.
