What’s better than crispy, roasted Brussels sprouts? They’re incredibly easy to make and flavorful with just a few staple ingredients. Brussels sprouts are cruciferous vegetables high in fiber, antioxidants, vitamin C, and vitamin K. They are in the same veggie family as cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, and kale. Depending on the cooking method, their flavor profile can taste vastly different. Roasting Brussels sprouts brings out a rich, caramelized flavor. If you’ve only tried them steamed and aren’t a fan, I highly recommend to try roasting them.
These are definitely one of my top sides that I prepare year-round, especially during their peak season from September to February. A side to savor with family and friends!
