As someone who loves to collect and experiment with olive oils, Nuvo’s collection from California has become a staple in my kitchen. While their basil-fused olive oil is my go-to for many recipes, I’m equally obsessed with their balsamic vinegars. The Meyer Lemon Balsamic Vinegar, in particular, is incredibly unique—it adds a bright, citrusy twist to any dish.
This recipe highlights the natural sweetness of Brussels sprouts and cauliflower, pan-fried to golden perfection and finished with a drizzle of Nuvo's Meyer Lemon Balsamic. It’s simple, quick, and proof that quality ingredients can transform even the humblest vegetables into something extraordinary.

Ingredients
<Serves: 2-3 as a side dish>
10–15 Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
1/2 head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
Sea salt, to taste
2 tbsp olive oil (or more as needed for frying)
Meyer Lemon Balsamic Vinegar, for drizzling
Instructions:
1. Place Brussels sprouts and cauliflower in a medium pot with 1 inch of water and a tight-fitting lid. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Steam over medium heat for about 8–10 minutes, or until just tender.
2. Drain any remaining water. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steamed vegetables and sauté until golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges, about 5–7 minutes.
3. Transfer to a serving plate and drizzle with Meyer Lemon Balsamic Vinegar. Serve immediately.
