1 lb. Brussels sprouts washed, snip the stem and remove the outer leaves that have blemishes
2 C. bone broth or substitute vegetable broth
1/8 tsp salt or more to taste
1 C. onion chopped
1/4 C. butter
1/2 C. pecans chopped
1/8 tsp ground pepper or more to taste

Place the bone broth into a large saucepan.
Add 1 pound of brussels sprouts to the pan with the bone broth. Cook the sprouts in the broth over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes until tender, but still a bit crisp.
Remove the brussels sprouts from the liquid, let them cool slightly, and cut them in half lengthwise.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
Once hot, add the onions to the skillet, and stir to coat in the melted butter. Cook the onions until they are browned and softened.
Add the sliced brussels sprouts into the skillet, mixing to combine them well with the onions. Saute the Brussels sprouts for 1-2 minutes.
Push the brussels sprouts over to one side of the skillet, and add the chopped pecans to the empty space. Toast the almonds for 1-2 minutes, and then toss in with the sprouts.
