Steam the Brussels sprouts in a traditional stovetop steamer. If you don't have a steamer, you can place about 1/4 - 1/2 inch of water in the bottom of a sauce pan filled with the Brussels sprouts, then cover and bring to a boil.

Once the sprouts are tender, drain the excess water. Place the hot Brussels sprouts into a mixing bowl and add the butter, hempseed, nutritional yeast, and lemon zest, and salt and pepper to taste. 

Toss or mix with a wooden spoon until everything is well mixed. Serve as a side dish or light lunch. This is also delicious as leftovers served over mashed yams or rice. You can add a drizzle of juice from the zested lemon on top if you love fresh lemon on your vegetables, but try it with just the zest first as the zest adds something unique to the dish.
