Makes 2 servings (or if your like me you can eat all of it)
Calories: 153..........Carbs: 24..........Fiber: 9..........Fat: 4
..........Protein: 12..........Sugar: 5..........Sodium: 207

Ingredients
1 pound Brussels sprouts
1 cup (low-sodium) chicken broth
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese
Pepper to taste

Directions
1) Cut Brussels sprouts in half. Remove any leaves/stems that look bad.

2) Spray pan with non-stick spray and sautee sprouts flat side down for 1-2 minutes.

3) Add 1 cup of Low Sodium Chicken Broth (I use No Sodium Bouillon), turn to medium heat and simmer for about 4-5 minutes. Broth should be mostly gone, and sprouts tender.

4) Serve, and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top, and pepper to taste (I don't use any personally)

    You can do the same prep with your brussel sprouts but instead of cooking on the stovetop toss them with a little bit of olive oil, salt and pepper and roast them in the oven until tender and browned on the edges. You can add the Parmesan after done roasting. Yummy! The roasting help to develop the natural sugars in the sprouts and you get a ton of flavor from them.

    The numbers on this look off. 3/8c (1 serving from this recipe) of parm cheese has 325 calories, 11gm Fat, and 600mg sodium.

    ACK! Thanks for point that out. I had tweaked the original (more fattening recipe) and notice I didn't put the new amount when I posted. It should be 2 1/2 TBSP, NOT 3/4c. *sigh*
