Best Brussels Sprouts Recipe: This Easy Lemon Garlic Herb Brussels Sprouts Recipe Is Tender & Tangy by Elisa Schmitz, 30Seconds
Brussels sprouts are an amazing little vegetable. Not only do these "mini cabbage heads" look as good as they taste, but they also pack a boost of nutrition in each bite. Brussels sprouts are a member of the cruciferous vegetables family, along with broccoli, kale and cauliflower. They're loaded with fiber, protein, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. And, they may help prevent some serious health conditions like certain cancers, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and heart disease, among other conditions.
As awesome as they are, cooking brussels sprouts always seemed kind of tricky to me. I'd made them once before and they turned out tough and chewy, which made me leery of trying again. But I decided to roast them in olive oil, lemon and herbs, and I'm so glad I did.
This easy roasted brussels sprouts recipe is not only flavorful, but also tender and tangy. It's the best brussels sprouts side dish I've ever had. This recipe is a simple way to enjoy the health benefits of this nutritious green vegetable, too.
