Dear Readers
A simple and underrated vegetable is the brussel sprout. If you enjoy eating cabbage you will like the flavor of this vegetable. To add flavor I add an onion and balsamic vinegar when roasting the brussel sprouts. Below is my recipe along with the nutritional information.
Ingredients:
1 pound brussel sprouts
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1.5 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 yellow onion (thinly sliced)
salt and ground pepper to taste
Preheat oven 400 degrees
Rinse brussel sprouts and pat dry. Cut the bottom off and take away any layers that are bruised or darkened. Place the cleaned brussel sprouts in a baking dish and add the onion slices, olive oil, balsamic vinegar (only 1 tbsp), salt and pepper. Toss and place in oven for 30 minutes. When the brussel sprouts are cooked take out of oven and then add the addition balsamic vinegar (.5 tbsp) and toss. Serve warm.
