Spinach And Brussels Sprouts Marinara Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil and season with salt. Toss to combine. Spread brussels sprouts on a large baking sheet. Roast in heated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside (check half-way through and give the brussels sprouts a quick stir so the other side has a chance to get some color.)
• While brussles sprouts are roasting, add the spinach, arugula, shallots, cranberries and almonds to large mixing bowl. Once ready, add the roasted brussels sprouts in.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients. Pour the vinaigrette on the salad (start with less if you're not sure you need it all.) Toss to combine. Then add in crumbled feta and give it another gentle toss.
• Transfer the salad to a large serving platter. Add another sprinkle of feta, almonds or cranberries if you like. Enjoy!

BRUSSELS SPROUT LEAF AND BABY SPINACH SAUTé

Steps:

• Working with one brussels sprout at a time, peel off each individual leaf, starting from the outside and working toward the middle. Continue to peel until you get to the tough core where it is just too tight to pull any more leaves. Discard the core and put the leaves in a big bowl. Repeat with the remaining brussels sprouts.
• Over medium heat, warm the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add all of the brussels sprout leaves and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add the vinegar and maple syrup and toss to coat. Add the spinach to the pan and toss until it is just barely wilted. It is better just slightly underdone in this case, as it will continue to cook in its own heat.
• Sprinkle with the salt and Marcona almonds and serve immediately.
