Bring some greens to your meal with these Orange glazed Brussels sprouts. Your family will love the unique flavor and beautiful presentation of these often-overlooked vegetables.

Ingredients
 1 lb Brussels Sprouts, Washed, Trimmed, and Halved
 1.50 lbs Butternut Squash, Peeled and Diced into 1in Cubes
 3 tbsp Olive Oil, Divided
 2 tsp Kosher Salt
 1 cup Pecans
Directions
1

In a large saute pan, heat 1 1/2 tbsp. olive oil over medium heat. Swirl to coat pan, then add in squash. Stir the squash pieces so they are coated with oil and sprinkle with 1 tsp. salt. Shake the pan so squash spreads out in an even layer and let cook, without stirring, so that they brown a bit on one side, about 5 min.

2

Stir and spread the pieces out again and let cook without stirring so more sides brown. Cover, and cook about 6 min., until the squash is soft, but holds its shape. Once done, remove from heat and pour into a bowl.

3

Heat remaining 1 1/2 tbsp. olive oil over medium-high heat using the same pan. When it's very hot, place the brussels sprouts cut side down in the oil, sprinkling with 1 tsp. salt. Turn the heat to medium, and sear on one side until nicely browned, about 5 min.

4

Turn the brussels sprouts and cook on the other side until nicely browned and tender, about 5 min. Some of the leaves can be charred dark brown or black.

5

Turn heat down to low and add the squash back to the pan, along with the pecans. Mix all glaze ingredients together, and stir into vegetables, coating and warming through.
