Ingredients
  

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 - 2 Tbsp Balsamic Glaze (or Balsamic Vinegar)
  • 1 Tbsp Maple Syrup
  • Tofu Bacon Bits
  • Vegan Parmesan Cheese

Dijon Parmesan Sauce

  • 2 Tbsp Melted Vegan Butter
  • 2 Garlic Cloves (Minced)
  • 2 Tbsp Vegan Parmesan (or 1 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast)
  • 2 tsp Dijon
  • 1 tsp Lemon Juice
  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions
 

Prep

  • Wash and dry the brussels sprouts (a salad spinner works great). Trim off the gross nub on the bottom, remove any loose leaves and cut in half.
  • Toss in the Olive Oil, Salt and Pepper and Nutritional Yeast.

Oven Roasted Method

  • Pre-heat oven to 425 F / 218 C. I like to add a layer of olive oil to a sheet pan to preheat along with the oven.
  • Once oven is preheated, carefully take out the sheet pan. Arrange the sprouts to be face side up, this will allow steam to escape so they don't get soggy or mushy. Bake for 12 minutes, then flip so they are cut side down. Bake for another 10 - 12 minutes or until they are browned to your liking.
  • Serve immediately, you can toss them in some Balsamic Vinegar or Glaze, or the Dijon Parmesan Sauce, maybe some Tofu Bacon Bits, whatever you like!

Cast Iron Method

  • Add a thin layer of oil to the pan and preheat over medium high heat (some cast iron should be preheated gradually, so start on medium and switch to medium high).
  • Once pan is preheated, add in the sprouts face side down. Cook undisturbed until well browned, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for another 5 minutes or until well browned.
  • You can also cook them as long as you'd like and really char them to your heart's content. I like to toss in a couple of cloves of minced garlic at the end as well, just turn the heat to low or off, and stir them for a minute and don't burn them.
  • Serve immediately, you can toss them in some Balsamic Vinegar or Glaze, or the Dijon Parmesan Sauce, maybe some Tofu Bacon Bits, whatever you like!

Air Fryer Method

  • Preheat Air Fryer to 400 F. Add the sprouts and air fry for 6 - 7 minutes, toss / flip them and spray with a little more oil. Air Fry for another 6 - 7 minutes or until browned to your liking.
  • Serve immediately, you can toss them in some Balsamic Vinegar or Glaze, or the Dijon Parmesan Sauce, maybe some Tofu Bacon Bits, whatever you like!

Dijon Parmesan Sauce

  • Simply whisk everything together and toss with the cooked Brussels Sprouts if desired!
