Follow @kalejunkie for more recipes! PSA—you NEED my SMASHED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH LEMON-TAHINI DIPPING SAUCE on your table this holiday season! There is only one appropriate word to describe this dish: INSANITY 🤯🤯!

Makes 6-8 servings
2 lb brussels sprouts
2 tb olive oil

Sauce
¼ cup lemon juice
⅓ cup olive oil
3 tb tahini
2 tb honey
2 tb red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic
1 tsp sea salt
1tsp black pepper
[1/4 cup water, optional, if sauce is too thick]

Wash brussels sprouts and cut off stems. It’s ok if some of the leaves come off, just set those aside. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the brussels sprouts for 15 minutes. Pop in an ice bath for about 5-10 minutes, until they have cooled. Drain the brussels sprouts. Next, preheat oven to 450F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the Brussels sprouts evenly on the baking sheet. Take the back of a glass or a plate and smash each brussel sprout, about 1/2 inch thick. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt & pepper. Place the tray in the oven for 35 minutes, flipping at the half way point. While the brussels are cooking in the oven, prepare the lemon-tahini dipping sauce. Add all of the dressing ingredients to a blender or food processor, and blend/process everything together until creamy. Remove the cover and taste, adjusting the seasonings as needed. Once the brussels come out of the oven, you can drizzle the sauce on top, or plate the brussels and dip them into the sauce. These are best served immediately while the Brussels are nice and crispy. ENJOY!
