Shredded Brussels Sprouts Casserole is a healthier and tastier approach to the classic Green Bean Casserole dish — no canned cream of mushroom soup or store-bought fried onions here!

Casseroles are the king of all party foods. When you’re invited to a dinner party or family gathering and asked to bring a dish, the easiest thing to make is some kind of casserole. It’s perfect for serving large groups of people, especially in a buffet-style environment, and easy to make ahead of time. There are SO many different kinds of casseroles — sweet and savory. Each of us at #SundaySupper have made our favorites to share with you today. Big thanks to today’s host, Alice of A Mama, Baby & Shar-pei in the Kitchen!

I can’t believe I haven’t shared this Shredded Brussels Sprouts Casserole with you yet — I made it for Thanksgiving! But I was waiting for today’s #SundaySupper event so I’ve had to keep it to myself all this time. My family loved the casserole. It’s a nice changeup from that classic Green Bean Casserole dish that is often served for Thanksgiving. There is a slight spiciness that almost tastes like horseradish, but it’s actually from the Brussels sprouts! Because they are blanched and not roasted or sautéed in any additional flavors, they retain their bitterness. But when paired with the rest of the ingredients in this casserole, that bitterness takes on new life and becomes absolutely delicious.

The best part about this Shredded Brussels Sprouts Casserole is definitely the crispy onions on top. I coated them in a little flour and panko bread crumbs and baked them instead of frying. They add such an intense flavor and crunchy texture to every bite. The only thing I would do differently the next time I make this is double those onions so they are not only on top, but everywhere inside the casserole as well.

I obviously have a new obsession with shredding my Brussels sprouts — they were in last week’s #SundaySupper recipe too! It’s a fun way to introduce them to someone who may not like this particular veggie, and a different way to prepare them. I’m also looking for unique ways to eat my veggies, otherwise I’d get bored. Since it’s a new year and everyone is thinking about eating healthier, Shredded Brussels Sprouts Casserole is a great choice.
