It’s all doom and gloom outside and I’m not looking forward to driving into work today.
I’ve got a 4-wheel drive car, so I’ll be fine…I hope. Right now there’s just a slight glazing of ice on the roads, but later it will be snow-packed. Yuck.
I’m filling my lunchbox to the brim today so I can be prepared for a long day at work. I’ve got snacks galore on top of my dinner tonight: smothered pork chops and creamy jalapeno-garlic Brussels sprouts.
I found a cheesy Brussels sprouts recipe on Pinterest and thought I could make it better (don’t we all have those thoughts??). In the end, I did! Tossing Brussels sprouts in a creamy, cheesy, spicy sauce was one of the best ideas I’d had in a long time.
If you’re not a fan of spice, omit the jalapeno in this recipe. Other than that, enjoy!
