    Celiac.com 11/03/2018 - I’ve been looking for new ways to enjoy Brussels sprouts lately. This recipe is simple to make and packed with deliciousness. All you need is some some good ham, a leek, orange juice, cider vinegar, salt pepper and olive oil, and wham, you’ve got a great start to a tasty dinner.

    Ingredients:

    • 2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed; halved if large
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • ½ cup diced good quality country ham
    • 1 large leek, halved lengthwise, rinsed and thinly sliced crosswise
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
    • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
    • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

    Directions:
    Fill a large stock pot about half way with water, add a teaspoon or two of salt, and bring to a boil over high heat. 

    Add sprouts and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until crisp, but fork tender. 

    Drain sprouts into a colander, discarding the cooking water.

    Return empty pot to heat and reduce heat to medium-high. 

    Add olive oil, ham, leek, salt and pepper. 

    Cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes until leeks are just tender. 

    Add sprouts; cook and stir for 2 minutes more or until heated through. 

    Drizzle with orange juice and vinegar, and toss until coated. Transfer to a serving dish. 

    Cover sprouts with pan juices and serve.

    Sounds delicious!! Which ham is gluten-free? Used to only be two places you could order gluten-free ham from.  Has this changed over the years? I love my Brussels sprouts and leeks!! Yum!
