Shredded Brussels Sprouts Saute with Garlic, Ginger and Grapes

Complex sweet and savory flavors intertwine in this easy, healthy shredded Brussels sprouts saute. The little cabbages are thinly sliced to soften their harsh texture and flavor, and then cooked with a melange of complimentary flavors, including garlic, ginger and yes, grapes. It’s a wonderful seasonal side that’s perfect for converting Brussels haters over the holidays, but is also so quick and simple that it can be enjoyed with any weeknight meal. Both Brussels sprouts and grapes are good sources or vitamin K, making this a good dish for dairy-free bone health, too.
