I think I may prefer roasted brussels sprouts over french fries.. what?!! Yes. If you are a fan, then you know what I’m talking about. If you haven’t tried them, then you probably think I’m wacky. But it’s true! Sometimes, I will make a big bowl of them for lunch, over some quinoa, and it’s perfect. Brussels sprouts may have a bad rep to some, but I am telling you, they are crispy, salty and one of my absolute favorite sides. I make them at least once a week, if not more! I’ve made them with dijon mustard, sometimes with balsamic, but I always go back to plain olive oil, sea salt and pepper. They don’t need anything fancy, they are perfect as they are 🙂 I don’t like to add too much when I roast veggies. Back to the basics is where it’s at.
They have to be a little crispy and golden on the outside, in my opinion! So give them a second try if you’re not a fan, you may be surprised. You may even become addicted. I serve brussels sprouts with anything, even over a salad. They are hearty, filling and make the perfect side dish. You’re in for a treat!
