It seems like brussels sprouts get a bad rap or go completely unnoticed, but we think that’s just because people haven’t tried them like this. Roasted brussels sprouts, packed with garlic, onions and nuts, are so good and really make healthy eating a breeze! This is a great dish for weeknight dinners or big family celebrations alike. You might have some picky eaters in the bunch, but we promise they’ll be champing at the bit for more of these greens; go you(!) for giving them something delicious and good for them!

Serves 6-8
Ingredients
