Brussels sprouts with pecans and sweet potatoes.

Servings

6 oz sweet potatoes , peeled and cubed
0.75 cup fresh cubed pumpkin
0.75 lb Brussels Sprouts, fresh , halved
1 tbsp olive oil
0.5 cup chopped leeks
0.5 cup chopped scallions
3 medium garlic cloves , peeled and crushed
0.25 cup chicken broth, low sodium , or water
2 tsp SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, granulated
0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
1 oz Nuts, pecans, dry roasted, unsalted , pieces

1 Boil sweet potatoes and pumpkin in a saucepan until just tender; drain and set aside.
2 Repeat with Brussels sprouts and set aside. (If using frozen vegetables, skip this step and just add to skillet after browning the leeks and garlic in the next step.)
3 In a non-stick skillet prepare, leeks, scallions and garlic the Enlitened way (see below).
4 Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the pecans, and cook for 3 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
5 Place on serving platter and sprinkle with pecan pieces.

Tip: When using leeks and scallions, discard the bulb, outer layer and dark green parts. Slice in half and wash carefully to remove all sand. To prepare: Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil with cooking spray in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat for a few seconds. Add the leeks/scallions and onions; stir and lower heat. Cook until the leeks/scallions start to brown, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and a few drops of water, the mixture will start to brown. Cook another few minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan so that nothing sticks.
