Instructions

Sliced In Half

Cut Into Fourths

  • Place two halves of a brussels sprout on the cutting board. Place the brussels sprouts flat side down while you cut through the center of the sprout.
  • Repeat with the other brussels sprout until you have four pieces.

Sliced Brussels Sprouts

  • Place each quarter of the brussels sprout onto the cutting board, then with the knife, slice the veggie into ½-inch pieces. Repeat until you have sliced the entire brussels sprout.

Chopped Brussels Sprouts

  • Place the slices onto the cutting board, then use the knife to chop the brussels sprouts into even smaller pieces. Repeat until you are left with chopped sprouts!
