I can’t remember where I read that someone else had done this, but brussels sprouts chips are the BEST idea in chips since … kale? I never can make kale chips just right, they’re always too soft or burned. But these brussels sprouts chips came out damn near perfect (some were a little burned). Here’s [...]
