Sauteed Brussel Sprouts

1 bag of fresh brussel sprouts, rinsed and dried
1 clove of garlic, chopped finely
2 tablespoons of butter (I use smart balance)
salt and pepper to taste

First get a saucepan and boil the brussel sprouts until tender.  Then drain and let cool.

Chop up the brussel sprouts long ways so you are just slicing them.

Then in a saute pan add the butter and garlic and let that saute for a little bit and then add the sliced brussel sprouts, salt and pepper and just saute until they have a golden color to them.

Enjoy!!!!

Spring Time Salad

This is to make 2 salads - these are not main course salads.

1 head of Romaine lettuce, chopped and rinsed
1 avocado, diced
15 strawberries, diced
1/3 cup of blue cheese crumbles (I use reduced fat blue cheese)
Balsamic vinaigrette

First put the romaine on the plate and then add the toppings and then drizzle with your favorite balsamic vinaigrette!

Enjoy!!!!
