How to make Shredded Parmesan Brussels Sprouts:
The first thing you’ll do is shred the brussels sprouts. The easiest way to do this is to put them through a food processor that is fitted with a slicing blade. If you don’t have a food processor, use a box grater and run them through the slicer instead of the grater.
Next, you’ll spread the shredded brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet and toss them with olive oil, salt and pepper. And then the shredded brussels sprouts are roasted for 30 minutes. You’ll want to give them a stir halfway through roasting.
The brussels sprouts are done when they are tender and browned in spots. You’ll be able to smell the delicious nutty flavor that’s developing while they’re roasting.
Parmesan cheese is stirred into the roasted brussels sprouts after they’re done roasting. Toss the baking sheet back into the oven for a minute or two, just until the cheese is melted.
Those little crispy bits of brown in the roasted brussels sprouts are the very best part. That smoky, nutty flavor is so delicious! Once you taste these Shredded Parmesan Brussels Sprouts, you’ll want to make them again and again!
Consider doubling the recipe if you’re making these for more than 4 people. Everyone is going to ask for seconds. Enjoy!
