Salad Like A Man

Ingredients:
24 ounces fresh Brussels sprouts
1.5 tablespoons coconut oil or grass-fed butter
1 Apple, chopped
3 pieces bacon, cooked & chopped
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon Himalayan pink sea salt

Directions:
Rinse Brussels sprouts to clean. Cut majority of base off sprouts and discard. Remove outermost layer of sprouts in half & others very thinly, moving from right to left vertically across the sprouts (similar to slicing an onion). Add coconut oil or grass-fed butter to a pan & heat over medium heat. Add apple, bacon, garlic & sprouts. Sprinkle with salt & garlic powder. Cook 15 to 20 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until Brussels sprout pieces have wilted to about half their original size. The sprouts can be slightly browned, if desired. Remove from heat & enjoy. Serves 6.
