Sriracha Brussels Sprouts Poppers ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #healthy #hot #appetizer #recipe

Sriracha Brussels Sprout Poppers

  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Cook Time: 15 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 poppers (or more) 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 brussel sprouts, halved (or more … )
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 3 oz. Greek cream cheese (or Neufchatel), softened
  • 1 Tablespoon Sriracha hot sauce

For the crunchy topping:

  • 1/3 cup crushed Rice Chex cereal
  • 1/4 cup finely shredded Italian cheese
  • 1/8 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Cut the brussels sprouts in half lengthwise and put them in a medium mixing bowl. Toss with the olive oil and a bit of Red Robin Seasoning (or salt), then set on a small baking sheet, cut side down. Roast for about 5 – 8 minutes or until just starting to lightly brown, then flip and roast on the other side for about 5 – 8 minutes. Set the baking sheet with the brussel sprouts in the freezer for 5 – 10 minutes to cool a bit.
  2. While the brussels sprouts are roasting, in a small bowl stir together the cream cheese & Sriracha and set in the freezer to cool and harden up a bit.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the crunchy topping ingredients. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  4. Turn the oven up to 450 F.
  5. When the sprouts are room temp, take them out of the freezer. Spread a good-size dollop of the cooled cream cheese mixture on the top (flat side) of each sprout, then sprinkle with the crunchy topping and set back on the baking sheet with crunchy side up. Bake for about 5 minutes or until the top is crunchy.
  6. Drizzle each popper with a bit more Sriracha, if desired.

Notes

You will have enough crunchy topping and cheese to make more than this recipe calls for, so make more poppers if you want! If you have some of the crunchy topping left, use it on casseroles, baked chicken or fish, poppers or stuffed peppers. If you have cheese left, enjoy it with crackers.
