Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 2 large scallions chopped
  • 1 pound Brussels Sprouts julienned
  • ¼ cup roasted and unsalted sunflower kernel seeds
  • 2 tablespoons plant milk preferable flaxseed or pea milk
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add garlic, scallions and Brussels Sprouts. Season to taste with salt. Cook and stir for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the seeds and the plant milk. Cook and occasionally stir for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are soft, but still, have a bite to them.

Notes

Plant milk: I am not using a lot in this recipe, only one to two tablespoons. But it is enough to add a creamy texture and the flavors of the plant milk itself. Note that based on the type of milk you use, the taste might differ. I prefer creamy and nutty milk like pea or flax milk. Make sure not to use flavored milk (like vanilla); it doesn't add justice to this dish.
