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.

Buffalo and ranch is the best combo! I am addicted to Hidden Valley Ranch. I have it in my house at all times and put it on everything – sandwiches, salads, veggies, potatoes.
Yum!
Okay… I’m willing to give brussel sprouts another chance, because this looks SO GOOD.
