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.
CRISPY ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND SHALLOTS
Slivered brussels sprouts and shallots caramelize, getting crisp and golden if you roast them at high heat. A dash of Worcestershire and a drizzle of lemon juice add just enough tang and acidity to round them out, without obscuring their natural sweetness. If you're not cooking for a crowd, feel free to halve the recipe and use one baking sheet. Serve these as a simple side dish to roast meats or fish, or use it to top a grain bowl, adding a fried or jammy egg for protein.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium bowl, toss together brussels sprouts, shallots, olive oil and salt. Evenly divide brussels sprouts mixture between two rimmed 13-by-18-inch baking sheets, spreading everything into one layer. Top with thyme sprigs.
- Roast, stirring once, until brussels sprouts and shallots are tender, golden and lightly charred in spots, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together garlic, Worcestershire and lemon juice.
- As soon as brussels sprouts emerge from oven, immediately drizzle with Worcestershire dressing, tossing to combine. Taste and add more salt, lemon juice, or Worcestershire if needed. Top with grated Parmesan if you like and serve immediately.
