HOW TO ENJOY IT ON KETO

  • Count oil, glaze, bacon or sauce as separate ingredients.

PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS

ROASTED WITH BACON

Halve sprouts and roast at 400°F (205°C) with bacon pieces for 25–30 minutes; the rendered fat adds flavor and crisp edges.

SAUTÉED WITH GARLIC

Quarter and sauté in butter with minced garlic until golden and tender; finish with parmesan and black pepper.

SHREDDED RAW SALAD

Thinly slice raw sprouts and toss with olive oil, lemon juice, parmesan, and toasted almonds for crunch.

AIR FRIED

Toss halved sprouts with avocado oil and seasonings. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, shaking halfway.

BRAISED IN CREAM

Sauté sprouts in butter, then add heavy cream and simmer until tender for a rich keto side.

PAN-ROASTED

Sear cut-side down in a hot skillet to caramelize; finish in the oven. Add a splash of balsamic vinegar sparingly.
