Brussels Sprouts Chips
- 17g Carbs, 7.2g Fiber, 4.2g Sugar

From: www.inspiredrd.com

Like kale chips? You'll love these!

10 brussels sprouts
1 tsp olive oil (or Misto olive oil sprayer)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

To remove outer leaves of brussels sprouts, use a sharp knife to trim
off the very bottom. Outer leaves should fall off easily. Once outer
leaves are removed, trim the bottom again, removing more leaves.
Continue removing leaves until they become difficult to peel off. Save
the center of each brussels sprout for another recipe.

Toss leaves with olive oil and salt. Spread out in a single layer on
baking sheets lined with foil or parchment paper.

Roast for 10 minutes, then check leaves. Remove any that are crisp.
Place baking sheet back in the oven and check every few minutes until
all leaves are crisp. A little browning on the edge of the leaves is
fine, but don't let the entire leaf turn brown or it will become bitter.
Serve immediately.
