Crispy Roasted Brussels Sprouts

In my opinion, Brussels sprouts have gotten a bad rap. Perhaps it’s the cooking method of choice, boiled and steamed sprouts are definitely not the most flavourful option, and bring back memories of childhood nights being forced to sit at the dinner table until we have cleaned our plate. The good news is, this crispy roasted Brussels sprouts recipe is about to change your mind.

Crispy Roasted Brussel Sprouts

Looking like miniature cabbages, Brussels sprouts are members of the cruciferous family of vegetables and are closely related to cabbage as well as kale, collard greens, and broccoli.

Brussels sprouts contain phytonutrients that help our body to promote the production of enzymes involved in detoxification, especially the liver. (1)

Not to mention, they are rich in vitamin K, vitamin C, folate, magnesium and fibre making them a nutritional powerhouse and a great side dish addition to any meal.

This recipe is oh-so-simple to prepare, but the roasting method provides so much flavour, and the addition of natural sea salt gives them a crispy crunch to boot. For the best results, be sure to use a high-quality salt, such as sea salt or rock as, as this will pack a boost of nutrition and flavour at the same time.
