Brussels Sprouts and Egg Skillet

Hello! You've landed on an older recipe. Sometimes the older recipes aren't written as clearly as they should be or something might need to be clarified. If something seems confusing or a question arises, send me an email and I'll help!

This week has been a bit of madness.

I first want to thank everyone for their amazing support of the new company.  I don't think Melissa and I expected everyone to be so welcoming and excited.  The whole thing is awesome, but it also left us scrambling to catch-up most of this week.  It's a good feeling.  I love the feeling of being busy: it helps me enjoy the times when I not.

So in the midst of everything, I wanted to take a moment and share this skillet with you.  I have an undying love for Brussels Sprouts so if you don't, this skillet might not be for you.  It's simple but makes for one heck of a delicious breakfast.

I tossed one egg in and ate the whole thing by myself but this would be great for two people if you added an extra egg and a couple slices of toasted.  Feel free to toss a few herbs in as well- I like my veggies with just a little salt and pepper.

Have a wonderful weekend!

  1. So happy to hear about a busy, even a little mad, first week! : ) Hope you guys will tell us what it's like, behind the scenes, as time goes on. Wishing you both the best!

  2. Yummy! Will this turn out the same if I used just a normal fry pan to cook it in? I've never cooked with a skillet before so I don't know how the results turn out exactly...
