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

P.S.  What is your favorite Christmas Cookie???

I want to give my apologies to the folks in the Philadelphia area. I seemed to have brought the California rain with me when I was there Thursday-Saturday. 😂 Hopefully you got some sun after I left.

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

Today I am sharing with you a spring vignette that I created. I just love tulips this time of year. Though, they seem to be out all year at Trader Joe’s, which is kind of strange. I can’t wait until they get peonies and lilacs. My two favorites.

The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

I used @cloth.bristle to clean my kitchen counters and sink. I love cleaning my sink with it. It makes it so sparkly and smells good too! Love that it’s all natural.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

I’m sharing with you my media table all decked out for Easter. I just love decorating for spring and Easter. Something about pulling out the bunnies that makes me smile.

The Jute Tree with the Eggs and the Wooden Bunnies are also from 12 Timbers. The Jute Tree is so much fun to add to your decor. I love the colors of the felt eggs. Plus I love the shape and the way the eggs hang off the branches. The Wooden Bunnies are just the cutest. You know me and bunnies. You can choose your bunnies in pink, white or stain. So much fun to add anywhere in your home.

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Have a beautiful day!
