Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups Brussels sprouts
- ¼ cup pecans, chopped
- 1 tbsp Earth Balance
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- ½ tsp lemon juice

Instructions
- Trim off the bottoms and any wilted outer leaves of Brussels sprouts, cut a small “X” in the bottoms to promote even cooking.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

- In a medium sized skillet, heat Earth Balance over medium heat. Add pecans and cook for 2 minutes or until mixture is fragrant.

- Add the brown sugar, lemon juice, and salt, toss to combine.
- Spoon Brussels sprouts into a serving dish and top with browned pecans.
