Better Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts have a serious PR problem. It used to be popular to steam Brussels sprouts, a technique which leaves them somewhat bland and soggy much to the dismay of children everywhere. However, when roasted in the oven with a splash of olive oil, salt, and pepper, Brussels sprouts are elevated to a treasured side dish for any meal or holiday feast. Even if your kids still don’t like them, it just leaves more for you.
