Chipotle Lime Brussels sprouts take on a Latin accent with a smoky, spicy-sweet chipotle and lime sauce, for an unforgettable side dish that just might become the star of the meal.
Of course you can medicate this dish with cannabis. But it is also healthy and delicious without the medicated addition.
This recipe is part of a feature we did on the Health Benefits of Brussels Sprouts.
Use Cannaoil to Medicate This Recipe
Cannabis oil makes a terrific way to medicate this recipe and others like it. A neutral flavored oil like canola, grapeseed, or avocado oil would work well. However because the recipe has so many strong flavors going on, especially with the smoky chipotle, you could even get away with olive oil.
If you don't know how to make cannabis infused oil, our simple tutorial will bring you up to speed.
Of course, if you just want a delicious and healthy spicy style Brussels spouts recipe without marijuana in the mix, simply use un-infused oil instead.
