Instructions
Chop the ends off of your brussels sprouts and toss them into your food processor. I do mine in three batches so I don't shred them too thin. Pulse the sprouts in your food processor until they are shredded.
On medium heat in a skillet add your olive oil and let heat until warm. Add the Brussels sprouts, onion, apple and garlic. Cook 2-3 minutes and stir the ingredients until they are mixed together.
Place the lid on your skillet and steam the sprouts for 5-6 minutes until they are tender and the onion starts to become translucent.
Remove the lid and add the salt, pepper, fennel seeds, sausage rounds and honey. Stir to mix the ingredients together. Cook on medium for another 2-3 minutes until the sausages are heated.
Serve immediately while the meal is still hot.

Top Tip
I like to use my twelve inch cast iron pan to make this recipe. I love how even cast iron pans heat. What I didn't love about them was cleaning them until I found this chainmail scrubber. The rubber in the center saves my hands and gets my pan really clean.
