Pesto Brussel Sprouts

Pesto Brussel Sprouts
One of my very favorite side dishes - from a Publix recipe, but a bit altered. If you love pesto and feta, this is a must-cook.

Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 lb Brussel Sprouts, halved or quartered, depending on the size
  • 4 cloves Fresh Garlic, finely chopped (I sometimes use a bit more, but I love garlic)
  • 1/4 cup basil pesto (most recently I used Trader Joe's Pesto alla Genovese)
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions
  1. Clean and quarter sprouts, chop garlic.
  2. Combine brussel sprouts, garlic and pesto in a bowl and mix until sprouts are evenly coated.
  3. Heat oil in sauté pan. Add sprouts and cook until tender, 8-10 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat. Top with cheese and serve.
