Brussel Sprouts with toasted walnuts, lime juice and olive oil

The first Jo made up brussel sprout recipe didn't taste bad at all. In fact quite nice. I went for a combination of brussel sprouts and walnuts to cross two seasonal superfoods off the list in one dish.

Ingredients:

• Brussel Sprouts
• Walnut halved, chopped
• Dash of lime juice
• Dash of extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper

Peel, halve and the boil the brussels for about 5 minutes. In the meantime, toast the walnuts by heating them in a pan. Keep an eye on them and turn of the heat as soon as they start to crisp. Drain the sprouts and return to their saucepan. Add the walnuts, a squeeze of lemon juice and a good glug of olive oil. Season to taste.

The lime juice took the edge off the sprouts and cut through the after taste. Olive oil also makes the smoother texture. If all else fails, I will be having this as a side dish all week.
