    Easy Roasted Brussel Sprouts

There is a comment section JUST FOR YOU to give your thoughts, and we want you to use it.

    Roasted Brussel Sprouts

    I absolutely HATED Brussel sprouts when I was a kid. They were served at our school cafeteria...slimy...green...mushy...bland. Pretty disgusting. (This is by no means an insult to the fine ladies that fed me at school. Hard working ladies...just poor choice by the school system??)

    These are not your lunch lady's Brussel sprouts, ok? Just trust me.

    I think the key is not to overcook them, or they just taste gross. Prepared this way, the roasting sweetens their flavor and they have a little cabbage-y crunch to them. Sometimes, food just needs to be itself. Prepared simply to let their own great flavor come through.

    Ingredients Needed:

    • Brussel sprouts fresh
    • Olive oil
    • Lemon juice
    • Garlic
    • Seasoning - We used an all purpose vegetable seasoning, but you can use salt + pepper.

    Want to know how I know these are good? My kids eat them and ask for more. Kids. Brussel sprouts. Yes, this makes you feel like a super mom!

    So set aside all of your Brussel hate and preconceptions and wipe that lunchroom memory out.

    Awwww...how cute! They look like baby cabbages, and IMHO they are photogenic.

    How to make Roasted Brussel Sprouts:

    1. Wash the sprouts and dry completely.
    2. Cut each Brussel sprout in half.
    3. In a bowl, toss with olive oil, lemon juice, and seasonings.
    4. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes.
    5. Flip the sprouts and roast for another 10 minutes.
    6. Enjoy!

      I'm a huge fan of braised Brussels sprouts, but must admit that I have never tried roasting them. You know how you get in your routines 🙂 I'm going to have to try these as my boyfriend and I love Brussels sprouts.

        They are so good...even my kids like them. Someone suggested I wrap them in bacon next time. I will definitely have to try that. I have also seen recipes where they are tossed in a little balsamic before roasting. Love me some sprouts!
