Grilled Brussels Sprouts with Whole Grain Mustard

We've been anxiously awaiting spring, like most of you. One of our favorite spring veggies is brussels sprouts.  Thanks to a blog on Pinterest, "Rosemarried",  I've found a recipe for grilling them.  Check this out!

In a pot of boiling water, blanch the brussels sprouts for about 3 to 5 minutes.  Remove from the boiling water and plunge into ice water to stop the cooking and keep the bright green color.  Pat dry and trim off the bottom stems and outer leaves.

Mix together 2 Tbls of whole grain mustard, 2 Tbls olive oil, and some salt and pepper.  

This will be the marinate.

Toss the brussel sprouts in and marinate for 30 minutes.

Next get your skewers ready.  I tried the bamboo skewers, but these metal ones worked better.

Here's a close up!  I think they look so pretty!

When the coals are nice and hot, place the skewered sprouts on and grill for 3 to 5 minutes per side.

The charring is the delicious part!

Enjoy immediately friends!
