People usually are not on the fence about Brussels sprouts - you're either a raving fan or a "can I give them zero stars?" critic. If you're one of the fans, you understand how amazing a freshly roasted Brussels sprout can be (and we've included a simple roasted sprout recipe here from one of our favorite recipes blogs, 101Cookbooks.com). For you critics, perhaps a healthy, flavorful preparation of sprouts would swing you over to the other side. Surely one of the recipes we've linked to below would delight your senses. And if appealing to your sense of taste isn't strong enough, how about an appeal to your sense of logic: Brussels sprouts have enormous amounts of vitamins C and K, fiber and a powerful phytonutrient that detoxifies the body and potentially removes carcinogenic substances. Swayed you yet? Let us know if you try any of the receips below.
