Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb brussels sprouts halved
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp monk ruit sweetener
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ cup shaved parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Brussels sprouts flat side down in a single layer, and cook for 3-4 minutes, then toss them and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes. 
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and monk fruit, then pour it into the pan with the Brussels sprouts. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese. Serve!

Notes

  • These are slightly sweet with lots of flavor from the balsamic vinegar and parmesan cheese! 
  • You can sub in regular sugar instead of the monk fruit sweetener. 
  • If you use a smaller pan, you may have to do the brussels sprouts in batches. They need to be browned in 1 layer, otherwise they won’t cook evenly. 
  • Brussels sprouts tend to lose their leaves as they cook. That’s totally normal, but don’t overcook them or they’ll turn to mush and lose their shape! 
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
