Ingredients

• ½ cup butter
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cups milk
• ⅛ teaspoon pepper
• 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon
• ¾ pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed
• 2 medium cucumbers, cut into 1/2 inch chunks

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Place Brussels sprouts in a pot with enough lightly salted water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook 5 minutes, or until tender.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place cucumbers in the skillet, and cook 5 minutes, until tender. Set aside cucumbers, and mix the flour into the butter to form a roux. Mix in the milk, bouillon, and pepper, and cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Step 4

In a baking dish, mix the Brussels sprouts and cucumbers. Drizzle with the butter sauce, and gently toss to coat.

Step 5

Cover, and bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven.
