Sprouts to Stir-Fry

Want to reinvent your favorite leafy greens? This stir-fried rice and veggie combo is an upgrade from your everyday side dish. Made with shredded Brussels sprouts, crispy bacon bits, and given a spicy mustard twist, this side is the perfect addition to any meal.

There are several things that together make this side dish deliciously unique. For starters, it begins with some bacon fried in a hot pan. There’s nothing like crispy bits of bacon to give a dish a hefty dose of flavor! You’ll want to save a couple of tablespoons of fat in the pan to sauté and add flavor to your sprouts.

From there, the earthy Brussels sprouts are shredded and sautéed in a mix of bacon fat and butter along with sweet shallots, fresh thyme and garlic. To finish it off, we add a zesty homemade dressing — made with Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and a drizzle of honey — to create a fresh, delightful stir-fry.

But to avoid the bacon and go vegetarian friendly, take a look at our vegan mushroom meatloaf.

Shop Around

Need help picking out a good batch of Brussels sprouts? Keep an eye out for bright green heads with leaves that are close together and heavy. Healthy leaves should be tightly packed and strong. Steer clear of any Brussels sprouts that have wilted leaves, brown spots or look a bit yellow.
