Best Brussel Leaf And Baby Spinach Sauté Recipes
BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Many vegan dishes (like fruit salad and peanut butter and jelly) are already beloved, but the problem faced by many of us is in imagining less-traditional dishes that are interesting and not challenging. Here is a creative way to do brussels sprouts with garlic and walnuts.

Steps:
- Cook a pound of halved brussels sprouts cut-side down in a skillet with oil and a little water or vegetable stock over medium heat, covered and undisturbed, until brown and tender, 20 to 30 minutes. (Check occasionally and lower the heat and/or add more water if the sprouts threaten to burn.)
- Put the sprouts in a serving bowl and drizzle with vinegar; set aside.
- Add a handful of chopped walnuts and a couple of cloves of minced garlic and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes; add mixture to the brussels sprouts.
- Put a bit more oil and a smashed clove of garlic in the skillet, then add 2 slices of good bread, cut into cubes, and brown lightly. Toss croutons with sprouts and serve.
BRUSSELS SPROUT LEAF AND BABY SPINACH SAUTé
This recipe was brought to The Times in 2012 by Sara Forte, a self-taught vegetarian chef and the author of the Sprouted Kitchen, a vegetarian food blog. While Ms. Forte loves whole roasted brussels sprouts, she knows many people don't like the woodsy center. In this simple warm salad, only the tender outside leaves are used. Just peel the leaves away, discard the core, then sauté with jumble of fresh spinach and dress with a white wine-maple syrup vinaigrette. A handful of Marcona almonds finishes it off for a a pleasant crunch.

Steps:
- Working with one brussels sprout at a time, peel off each individual leaf, starting from the outside and working toward the middle. Continue to peel until you get to the tough core where it is just too tight to pull any more leaves. Discard the core and put the leaves in a big bowl. Repeat with the remaining brussels sprouts.
- Over medium heat, warm the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add all of the brussels sprout leaves and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add the vinegar and maple syrup and toss to coat. Add the spinach to the pan and toss until it is just barely wilted. It is better just slightly underdone in this case, as it will continue to cook in its own heat.
- Sprinkle with the salt and Marcona almonds and serve immediately.
