Brussel sprouts: healthy & spiced up

Roasted brussel sprouts are incredibly healthy and filling. They are amazing for our body: rich in vitamin C, K and iron. Brussel sprouts are rich in fiber, which helps to support our gut health. It helps to regulate our blood sugar levels and we have less appetite for sweets. It is high in oxidants – amazing for our skin. And vitamin C, which helps with collagen production.

Despite this fact, personally I am not a big fan of brussel sprouts taste. That is why I need to spice them up a little bit to make the taste more interesting. I developed a recipe in which you roast them in incredibly delicious sauce and at the end the brussel sprouts lose their bitterness and end up very soft and crunchy.

This recipe contains 4 servings – I love to prepare it in advance and enjoy it during the week. It goes perfectly with french fries (check my recipe for homemade fries) or rice and couscous (basic recipes on how to cook rice and how to cook couscous). The best is to add it to bowls. One of my favorites is to eat it as part of brussel sprouts salad or brussel sports bowl. It is an amazing lunch or dinner idea, which can be prepared in advance and saves you a lot of time if you need a quick filling meal.

After the brussel sprouts are not roh anymore, roast on a high heat for 7 more minutes until they are fried and a little but crunchy.
