July 2023 – 4th of July Recipe – Sweet Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts

Submitted by: Nadia Jenkins – MFLC – Counselor Tier 4

Ingredients:

2 Large Sweet potatoes

1 Medium or Large Purple Onion

Brussel Sprouts

Garlic and herb (salt free)

Sea Salt

Ground or Fresh Pepper

1 Table Spoon of Grape Seed Oil

***be sure to wash your veggies prior to preparing them**

Directions:

Cut about 2 large sweet potatoes into cubes

Cut a medium to large purple onion in cubes

Cut your Brussels sprouts in half (remove that bottom core)

Season with garlic and herb salt free (as much as you like) or whatever waves your flag

Add about a pinch of sea salt and some ground or fresh pepper

Over medium heat, add grape seed oil, about a table spoon (should be enough to lightly coat the veggies)

Add that mixture to your pan and sauté until you can stick a fork in your potatoes. (For the sake of time, cover the veggies add about a tablespoon or less of water and allow the veggies to steam some. Remove the cover and allow the water to dissolve and then begin the sauté process.)

Happy Eating:)
