Sauteed Brussels Sprouts and Apples

November 16, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 12 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Happy Friday!  Woohoo!!  Only a few hours of work left and I am on vacation!!  He he!  I’m so excited I could just scream!  Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!  Wow, I can’t get over how fast time is going!  Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week?  Next week!  Next thing you know Christmas will be here!  I am so not ready for Christmas at all!!  So do you have any big plans for the weekend?  I plan on doing some major house cleaning, plus I got some new shelves to put all my blog props on so that means I get to organize them!  I have bags of stuff I bought and I don’t use whats in them because I forget what I have and nothing worse is when your ready to plate your food and you have to dig through bags to find a bowl or plate.  So I can’t wait to set it all up and see what I have.  I just hope my shelves can hold everything, I have a feeling it won’t.  I also plan on making my cookies for the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap.  I want to get them out in Monday’s mail.  I think I know what I am going to make, so you will just have to wait until December for me to share it with you.  It’s a new recipe, so hopefully they will turn out!!  Crossing fingers.

Today I have for you another one of my Brussels Sprout recipes.  Now if you ever read any of my past Brussels Sprouts posts, you know I never liked them.  My Husband kept telling me to try them and finally I did.  I didn’t like them!  They were the frozen ones with all the cheese sauce and I just didn’t like the taste, blah!  Then I decided to make them a different way, so I roasted them.  They tasted ok, but nothing I would go out of my way for.  Then one day I thought this will be my last chance for the green little sprouts!   I sliced them thin and sautéed them in a pan, and guess what?  I loved them!  But what’s funny is my Husband didn’t!  He said he only likes the frozen ones, that the fresh ones taste bitter.  Funny I never found Brussels Sprouts to be bitter.  I did however find that when you slice them thin, they tasted much better to me, then cut in half or whole. I think that’s because when you slice them there more exposed (naked Brussels Sprouts he he) and get coated with whatever flavors you cook them with.


So today I bring you Brussels Sprouts sautéed with Apples.  This is a fantastic dish and screams Fall!  The apples bring a sweetness to the dish which is a perfect companion to the onions and Brussels Sprouts.  For an added punch of flavor I added a little bit of apple juice right at the end of cooking time and to make them pretty I threw in a few dried cranberries.  This dish is wonderful and would be great to serve as a side dish at Thanksgiving.  Tonight I served my Sprouts with Pork Cutlets baked in apple cider and my Cranberry Walnut Rolls.  This was the perfect dinner.  The sprouts with the apples go very well with pork.  But since I have been hooked on my sprouts, I think they go with just about any meat.

You will have to forgive the lack of photos tonight.  For the past couple of days I have been trying to do my blog and it has taken me hours, one full day to do yesterday’s post.  I tend to lose my train of thought when I’m trying to load photos that take forever to load!  So I apologize if I seem gibberish or all over the place.   I’m thinking that I am making my pictures to large or I have to many of them on my site.  So from here on out I need to control myself and lessen the photos.  I am sure you understand.  I would rather have a half way decent blog for you to read then a bunch of the same type of photos.

So with all that said, I’m going to cut it short tonight, since I still need to download the recipe and photos.  I’m afraid that is going to take me a few hours.  One last note, don’t forget to enter my giveaway for the Special K Gift Basket.

Have a super duper fabulous fun weekend!!

Toodles,

Jennifer

Happy Thursday! We have been having 100 degree wea Happy Thursday! We have been having 100 degree weather for the past couple of days, but now we are going to cool off into the 70’s. Such a big change, that it’s going to feel cold. 
🌸
My plants have seemed to have survived the heat pretty good, except for my Black Eyed Susan’s that I planted a few weeks ago. Hopefully they will bounce back with the cooler weather we will get. 
🌸
This is a photo of my garden that I took a couple of days ago. It’s filling in nicely. I planted a small Mexican Sunflower plant a few weeks ago and I’m looking forward to watching it grow. I planted one last year and it grew so fast that it ended up collapsing and I had to tear it out. I’m hoping planting a smaller one, it will get more if a root system and hold up to its height. It’s such a cool plant with beautiful orange flowers. 
🌸
What is your favorite flower to grow?

Happy Tuesday! I thought it would be fun to create Happy Tuesday! I thought it would be fun to create an outdoor tablescape. It’s such a pretty space to see and I love how you can make the outdoors an extension of your home. I loved looking out my window and seeing my table. Now I wouldn’t leave it up like I do my dining room, but it was fun to keep it up for the day. 
🌸
Now let me tell you, it is so hard for me to photograph outside. I tried to do it before sunrise and I tried again at sunset. Ugh! I just can’t get the right lighting. I don’t know how so many people make there outdoors look so pretty. If you have any tips, let me know. I’d appreciate that.
🌸
Do you like to photograph outside?

Happy Monday! Last week of work until vacation. I Happy Monday! Last week of work until vacation. I can’t wait. I haven’t had any vacation since Christmas, except for a few random days here and there. I have no plans, but I sure plan on enjoying it.
🌿
Speaking of Christmas, I don’t think I have showed you my console table me since then. I finally finished decorating it. It’s been half done for about a month. Before that, it was an awful catch all space. 
🌿
I decided to stick to the greens, neutrals and for some added color yellow. I really like using yellow this time of year. I noticed I started decorating with yellow in my dining room and it trinkled into my living room. 
🌿
What’s your favorite color to decorate for in the summer?

🌸~🌼~🌸 WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIEN 🌸~🌼~🌸 WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR ENGAGEMENT TOUR! 
~M🌼Y your day be filled with happy moments and beautiful flowers! 

I decided to create a zinnia garden this year and I am so excited to see it bloom. A few flowers started to show. I didn’t want Sully 🐶 in the garden, so I put a fence around it.  It worked for about 3 weeks. I was on stories yesterday, showing other parts of the garden and I turned around and saw Sully in my garden. I must have screamed so loud. He was stuck in there and panicking because I was. I got him out and no damage to any of the flowers. That was scary!

Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went Happy Tuesday! This weekend my husband and I went cherry picking. It was so fun! We got so many cherries. I’m guessing about 9 pounds. I have no clue how two people are going to eat 9 pounds of cherries? But we will try.
🍒
I am so happy we were actually able to pick cherries. We missed out the past couple of years. The season comes up so fast and only lasts a couple of weeks. Plus it gets so busy that the traffic is awful. That’s one thing about California is the traffic is so bad here that it takes the joy out of doing things. But not this year! I got my cherries!! 
🍒
If swipe the photos, you will see the bucket of cherries and a couple cherries on the tree.

What is your favorite cherry recipe?

☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIE ☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR TOUR! 
M🌸Y every flower lift your spirits!

I am sharing with you my Everblooming Hydrangea. This is a full sun hydrangea. I planted it last year and it did so crappy. I was shocked to see so many flowers on it. We have had a relatively cool Spring, so it’s been happy. Today it got hot out and I just went out to look at the hydrangea and it’s shriveling. So I need to capture this moment before it poops out this summer.

We are a fabulous group of friends sharing their love of flowers and elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. I can’t believe that this weekend is Mothers Day. It just seems early this year. I am not sure what are plans are going to be this weekend?
🌷
I am sharing with you the @krumpetshomedecor deal of the week. It’s a set of two mango wood trays with a beautiful rope handle.
🌷
The bigger tray I used to make a tulip arrangement. It’s such a great size. The last photo is also how I used the tray on my bed. The smaller tray is perfect for holding my olive oils in my kitchen. These trays will fit in about  any space. I just love them.
🌷
Don’t forget that Krumpets Home Decor is having 25% off there whole site. Plus you can use my 10% off discount code on top of the sale price: PBANDP. The link is in my bio.
🌷
Do you have any plans for Mothers Day?
