Brussels Sprouts Gratin

This cheesy, decadent Brussels Sprouts Gratin recipe features thinly sliced Brussels sprouts in a blend of cream, Gruyère, and parmesan cheese with a crunchy crumb top.

Brussels Sprouts recipes may be trendy, but they have always been cool to us. I am always asking Keith to come up with new ways to prepare our favorite little green veggies, and he never disappoints. Our Apple Cider Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Brussels Sprouts Flatbread are favorites at our house. And this Brussels Sprouts au Gratin recipe is joining the list.

We combined a delicious blend of cheeses delicious with crunchy panko to create a truly special side dish that is worthy of a holiday celebration (think Thanksgiving!). It's also a great weekday staple.
