Brussels sprouts anyone? :) It seems like just the name of this vegetable has a negative connotation... (or is it just with Jon?)
Trader Joe's has been selling entire stalks of them for $1.99! I can't leave the store without picking one up. :) For some reason... it is much more fun to snap them off the stalk than to open up a plastic bag.
Way to go Trader Joe's!! for eliminating unnecessary packaging on this veggie.
Anyways, last night I roasted the entire stalk! I wanted to make enough to last for a couple days. :)
Easy Roasted Brussels Sprouts:

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- sea salt to taste
Transfer to fun dish...
Ta-daa! So simple, yet delicious.
One thing I love about veggies is that you can eat as much as you want! :)
I've never understood why brussel sprouts have such a bad reputation. I think they're great! I'd love to try roasting them!
ReplyDeleteI was watching some chef cook them the other day and he said that bad smell and taste is because they're over cooked. So I may give them another chance someday.
ReplyDeleteMy teenager LOVES Brussels sprouts,usually pan roasted, sometimes with red potatoes added, sometimes with apples. It's great to have a healthy side dish she loves. I'm growing them in the garden this winter. I did it once before a few years back but it was before she loved them.
ReplyDeleteWow! That sounds unusual for the "typical teenager." But I love it!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool that you are growing Brussels sprouts in your garden! I planted some about a month ago... but they were eaten by critters.
