Brussels Sprouts Tacos with a Peanut Sauce

Tangy peanut sauce atop Brussels Sprouts tacos. Add to this sweet potatoes and bacon and you have a match made in heaven.

At the end of February I was in New York city for a week. Knowing I was going to be there for four days of training plus a few more days for fun, I kept an eye on Instagram for great food places to try during my trip. One place I apparently missed was a taco place that had a special for February – Brussels Sprouts tacos.  Say what?

Now I love me some Brussels Sprouts. Roasted. Check. Fried. Double Check. Pizza. Check. Hash. Check. But in a taco? Never tried it. But as soon as I saw a picture of these bad boys on the Gram, I had to try them. There was no other option.

And let me tell you, it’s genius. I added my regulars of sweet potatoes and bacon because why not just throw the hash in a corn tortilla! I almost topped the taco with a fried egg but instead opted to try out a peanut sauce since it’s National Peanut Month! This tangy sauce was the perfect addition to these tacos. Now I have to go find other things to drizzle it on.

If you have ideas of what I can pair with Brussels Sprouts other than sweet potatoes, carrots, bacon and cranberries – let me know. I’m always up for more ideas!

And be sure and stay tuned to the blog because I’ll be sharing all the places I went and the foods I ate in New York city. My stomach is still full from all the foods. Even with all the walking, I’m still full. Plus I got sick once I got back home. Why does that always happen to me. Every. Single. Time. But I won’t stop traveling! Next up is New Mexico or Las Vegas. I can’t wait to see which one comes first!

Ingredients

  • Brussel Sprouts, end cut off and cut in fourths
  • Bacon

  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce

  • Cook Brussel Sprouts but adding more oil to the pan and letting pan get hot, almost to the point of smoking. Add sprouts (watch out because they will pop) and let sear without moving for 2-3 minutes. Toss and cook until done. Remove and drain sprouts then season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat corn tortillas in cast iron pan.
  • Prepare tacos by placing one corn tortilla atop another tortilla. Add potatoes, sprouts and bacon. Drizzle peanut sauce on taco.
