    A brussel sprout gratin that teams up with cauliflower.  Topped with pinenuts and cheese with a sprinkling of low carb breadcrumbs this is a hearty side dish.

    Brussel sprouts to me are normally something that is served to me during the festive season, and usually either boiled to an inch of it's life or hard enough to chip a tooth.   This is a nicer way of eating them and is a great side dish.   If you want to trick your family and friends into eating brussel sprouts...then serve this!  It's creamy,  full of flavour and far nicer than a plain serving of sprouts!

    I use breadcrumbs from one of my low carb coconut flour bread rolls for the topping.  You could omit this or replace it with another low carb bread.   The pine nuts give it a nice crunch and added flavour.  You could try this with other nuts, pecan might be a nice alternative. Anyone who thinks they "hate" brussel sprouts may be persuaded by this dish.  I sprinkle sage in all of the layers to give it extra seasoning, but this is just a matter of taste. To help with the panic of cooking during the festive season, this dish can be assembled the day before.  Just keep the topping separate, then put together on the day of cooking.

    This is a large dish and would make about 8 portions.  You will need to scale it down for a smaller serving.  Or spend a few days eating your way through this!

        Hi Sharon, I am never comfortable in posting the carb contents as I am not a qualified nutritionist. The ingredients are low carb so should not be too bad. Once I complete my nutritionist course, I will be adding the values of each dish (that will be a very busy afternoon!)
