Welcome to the Sunday Fitness & Food Link-Up! Today I am sharing one of my all time favorite side dishes, Roasted Brussels Sprouts.  Ahhh, Brussels Sprouts: People seem to love them or hate them!  My husband was in the latter camp after growing up eating boiled sprouts.  So, the first time I said I was making them, he was less than excited. However, I convinced him to give the Roasted Brussels Sprouts a try.  He loved them and could not get over what a different taste they have when they are prepared this way. They have a nutty flavor, caramelized texture, and are delicious with a little butter & lemon juice.  Now, he asks for them frequently, and a real bonus is that my kids also love them!

Ingredients

  • 3 Cups (approx. 2 lbs) of fresh Brussels Sprouts
  • 1 ½ tablespoon of Coconut Oil or Olive Oil
  • 3 tablespoon of Water
  • Sea Salt
  • Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of Lemon Juice
  • 1 tablespoon of Butter

Instructions

  1. Place oven rack in upper ⅓ of oven and preheat to 450 degrees
  2. Trim off bottoms of Brussels Sprouts and cut in half, then rinse with water.
  3. Spray rimmed baking sheet with olive oil spray or rub with olive oil
  4. Spread Brussels Sprouts on sheet and place 3 tablespoon of water over them
  5. Sprinkle with Sea Salt and Black Pepper as desired
  6. Cover with aluminum foil and seal the edges
  7. Place in oven for 10 minutes (this will steam the sprouts)
  8. Take out of oven and remove foil, then toss the Brussels Sprouts with 1 ½ tablespoon of Coconut Oil (it will be solid, but will melt as you toss the sprouts). Leave foil off pan.

  1. I completely agree Angela, sprouts are just like marmite - you either love em or loath em. Thankfully we're in the former camp but we usually steam ours on the hob so I'm definitely going to try roasting them, I bet they taste amazing! Pinning.
