Sauce Secrets
What makes these brussels sprouts good is their crispiness. What makes them GREAT is adding a delicious flavorful sauce.
We’ve paired this recipe with a Sriracha Lime Aioli. There are two tricks that make this sauce a healthier option than a traditional aioli. First, we substituted much of the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt. Second, we added a splash of water to thin the sauce out a bit. This helps with portion control because when you go to dunk your brussels sprout in the aioli, you get just the right amount of sauce because it is a bit thinner. Trust me this sauce is plenty flavorful and you don’t need much to reap all the tasty benefits it has to offer! So feel free to dip and dunk in the sauce over and over again completely guilt free!
