Every vegetable deserves a chance to shine. Today it is the mighty, little brussel sprouts turn!
Basically a mini cabbage, the brussel sprout is a health boon boasting tons of vitamin A and C and beta carotene. They also contain protein and fiber.
Sadly, they somehow get a bad rap. And I used to be one of those who wouldn’t eat them. But one thing I have learned about vegetables. It’s all about how you cook them. Cook them wrong and you will get a bad result. Cook them right and you will get a delicious vegetable.
Follow the recipe below to get a cooked brussel sprout a kid would even eat!
