How to Make Brussels Sprouts Chips
Although I love eating the crisp outer leaves of roasted brussels sprouts, it never occurred to me to focus on the leaves and roast them to a crisp. Sandy Smith of Eat Real shares a recipe for brussels sprouts chips, in which the outer leaves are separated from the centers and everything is tossed with salt, pepper, and olive oil before roasting. "When I make these, there are never, ever any leftovers," Smith says.

SHUT. UP. I can't believe someone else does this! And that's exactly how I make them, too.
The 'chips' have been my way of introducing friends who say "Ewww...I hate brussels sprouts!" to those wonderful petite cabbages!

I just picked up some fresh brussel sprouts from the Brooklyn Fairway...I think I'll try this but probably hit it with some chili pepper powder for some spicy heat. Thanks!

I tried frying brussel sprout leaves in oil and they literally exploded on contact with the oil. BOOM!
