Simplicity's the key to this magical sandwich. Steamed brussels sprouts lay cut between two pieces of generously mayonnaised and seasoned Dave's Killer Good Seed Bread. That's it! Simple, but I promise, sheer perfection.

Ingredients
16ouncesbrussels sproutssteamed, drained, cooled in the fridge
6piecesDave's Killer Bread (yellow label)- or equivalent
Rinse brussels sprouts under cool water. Shake the colander allowing the water to remove any loose dirt from the sprouts. With a sharp knife, trim the small tough end of each sprout, then remove any brown leaves.
In a medium size pot, bring 1" of water to a boil. In the steamer portion of the pot, add the whole sprouts. Cover and cook until fork tender, about 6 minutes. If you like them softer, let them go a bit longer. Remove and transfer the sprouts to a heat safe bowl and season with 1 to 1½ teaspoons of garlic powder, then let cool to room temperature. Cover with a lid and place in the refrigerator for later sandwich use.
Brussel Sprout Sandwich
On a wood board, cut your fridge cold sprouts in half. Set aside.
Lay six pieces of bread on a cutting board and coat with mayonnaise. Sprinkle with garlic granules and black pepper, then arrange the halved brussels sprouts on half the the pieces of bread. Place the top piece on the bottom and cut the three sandwiches in half.

Notes
While I adore roasted brussels sprouts, I tried making this sandwich out of them but to me, the magic was lost. I prefer steamed sprouts because a sandwich needs volume and "bite."
