]]> Brussels sprouts are one of the most delicious veggies you should add to your menu during the colder seasons, and their versatility knows no bounds. It’s always fun to discover new ways to prepare them, and you can find some pretty amazing ideas on the food blog The Real Food Dietitians.

Easy Roasted Brussels Sprouts

If you’re still new to preparing Brussels sprouts and want to start things small, this is the recipe you need. It will help you master the art of making perfectly browned and crispy roasted Brussels sprouts. To make the whole thing even better, this recipe pairs this veggie with one of its best pairings—bacon!

]]> Brussels sprouts are commonly known by the nickname “baby cabbages”, but that doesn’t necessarily make them equals. These two veggies belong to the same plant family, but there are many major differences between them, and here are the three most significant ones.

Growth Differences

You don’t even have to taste cabbage or Brussels sprouts to tell they’re different, it’s enough to see them while they’re still growing. Cabbages grow close to the ground, but that’s not the case with their smaller cousin because sprouts grow their tiny heads on a tall central stem.

Taste Differences

Once you take a bite of these veggies, it’s pretty clear they’re not one of the same. Brussels sprouts have a more bitter flavor, but they can taste pretty great when grilled, roasted, boiled, steamed, or stir-fried. These preparation methods work with cabbages, as well, but they’re also a good pick for salads and slaws because they taste just as amazing when eaten raw.

Nutritional Differences

Brussels sprouts may have a more bitter taste than cabbages, but it’s all worth it because they’re much more nutritious. They contain a high level of vitamins A and C, potassium, and magnesium, while cabbages have lower calorie content, but contain more sugar, resulting in their better taste.

]]> Brussels sprouts are one of the seasonal veggies that you should be eating on a regular basis this winter because they come with a long list of healthy properties. They can be cooked in many different ways, and the preparation technique will determine how you should cut them.

X Cut

There are times when your Brussels sprouts are best left whole, especially if you’re using them for blanching. In this case, you should just cut off their stem ends, and carve a tiny X into their core with the tip of a knife.

Halved or Whole

If you’re planning to sauté or roast your Brussels sprouts, you’ll just have to get rid of their stem ends and cut them in half or keep them whole, depending on the size.

Thinly Sliced

Thinly sliced Brussels sprouts come with a long list of different uses and you can cook them in many different ways. Just like halved sprouts, they can be sautéed and roasted, but you can also prepare them inside an air fryer or eat them raw.

Shredded

Most people roast their Brussels sprouts, but how about putting them inside your salads and slaws? If you’re thinking of using them this way, shredded sprouts are your best option, and you can also use them in quick sautés and stir-fries.

This pan-fried recipe is a little unusual in a few ways, but is really simple and will give you amazing Brussels sprouts every time and this recipe only takes 10 minutes!

Instructions

  1. Cut one pound of sprouts in half. If you can find ones that are on the smaller side buy them as opposed to the larger ones because they will be sweeter.
  2. Put the sprouts cut side down into a cold, non-stick pan without turning on the heat yet.
  3. Add in 5 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and then put the lid onto the pan and turn the heat onto medium.
  4. Then, take off the lid and keep cooking for about 2-3 minutes or until the cut sides are really brown.
  5. Once they are brown, season them with salt and pepper and you can take them off the heat, and plate them.
  6. To dress them, you can simply squeeze over some lemon juice, make a dijon mustard vinaigrette, or grate over some beautiful Parmesan cheese over them.

]]> Caesar salad is a classic salad you’ve probably had a hundred times. But, with this recipe, you can be sure your taste buds will be totally shocked. We’re swapping out lettuce for Brussels sprouts, adding jalapenos to the dressing, so get ready for some extreme flavor.

Salad

For the base of the salad, you can either hand-shred or put the shredding attachment of a food processor on to cut up the Brussels sprouts. Whichever way you do it will be fine, and when they’re nicely shredded, put them into a bowl. To make the croutons, cut up some old bread into cubes and fry them in oil in the stove with some sliced garlic in there for extra flavor.

Dressing

To make this dressing, pour mayo, Worcestershire sauce, anchovy paste, the juice of two lemons, the zest of 1 lemon, 3 egg yolks, a spoonful of Dijon mustard, a clove of garlic, 1 fresh jalapeno, and fresh cracked black pepper into a food processor.

Start the food processor and then drizzle in 1/4 cup of olive oil, or until the sauce has emulsified. Finish it with Asiago or Parmesan cheese and pulse it a few more times. Pour the dressing over the sprouts and then put the croutons on top and enjoy!
