I’m super excited to have one of my recipes featured in this month’s issue of Family Circle, a perfect treat for those last few January Sundays on the couch watching football. I took a classic game day snack and gave it a healthier twist with a big tray of crispy baked brussels sprouts tossed with a classic game-day flavor: buffalo wing sauce. The spicy brussels sprouts are baked to a crisp and pairs with a cool, refreshing Hidden Valley Ranch dip. I love that combination of spicy heat and cool ranch flavors — it makes these so addictive! Serve them on their own, or as a fun side dish for burgers or chicken sandwiches.
- 1 lb of Brussels sprouts
- ¼ cup of hot sauce
- 1 tbsp. of butter

- 1 tbsp. of chopped chives (plus more for garnishing)
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Halve Brussels sprouts and toss on a rimmed baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Cook Brussels sprouts for 25 minutes, until leaves begin to brown and crisp.
- While the Brussels sprouts are cooking, combine 1 tablespoon of melted butter with ¼ cup of hot sauce.
- Remove Brussels sprouts from over and toss in a bowl with hot sauce and butter mixture. Return to oven and broil for 1-2 minutes to crisp.
