Brussels Sprout Chips

Brussels Sprouts is another Spring food.  This week, I am posting a video blog post from Anita Capizzi, my nutrition guru. Here she is showing how to make chips with Brussels Sprouts.  Seriously, who'd've thunk???!!!!  They are amazing!!!  Spring food with a crunch...and don't expect to have any left for later.  Thanks, Anita!!!

Here's the recipe: 

Pre heat oven to 350 degrees.

INGREDIENTS

     Outer Leaves of Brussels Sprouts (The larger sprouts are easier to make chips from.)

     Olive oil

     Sea salt


DIRECTIONS
Peel off the outer layer of sprouts and discard. Then peel the next layer and save to a bowl. Keep the sprout itself in a zip loc bag for later use.

Toss sprout chips in the bowl with a fine mist of olive oil and sprinkle sea salt to taste.

Arrange on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure that they are in a single layer.

Bake for 8-10 min. watching after 6 min. to be sure that they don’t burn!

Enjoy this chip alternative!  

P.S. If they don’t crisp up it’s usually because you added too much olive oil!
