How-To Roast Brussels Sprouts (Video)

YouTube Preview Image

Before making 5-minute lemon & garlic brussel sprouts I would have told you that roasting brussels sprouts were my favorite way to eat them.

Now I can’t decide between the two because they’re both so good that I guess I’ll just have to eat brussels sprouts more often.

If you ever have a veggie that you think you don’t like, roast it!  Roasting veggies makes them all taste good and has a way of turning any and everyone into a veggie lover.

In this video I show you my technique for roasting.  It’s pretty simple and straight forward and will result in amazing brussels sprouts every time.  I promise!

So go check out the video and then let me know what is your favorite way to prepare brussels sprouts? Do you like them roasted, steamed, raw in a salad?  I wanna hear your take down in the comments below;).

Yield: Serves 4

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts
  • 1 tsp.  Olive oil
  • ½ -1/2tsp. kosher salt

    I love roasting veggies, I do it all the time with broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, zucchini you name it! I never did it with Brussels sprouts though and I love them! Can’t wait to try them this way, I bet they’re yummy! Thanks for the recipe!

    Awesome recipe. For a veggie recipe, with low calories, it is incredible really. First impression is these taste like potato chips. Will definitely make these again. My wife and I ate a 10 oz container. We could have enjoyed twice as much. Thanks, Dani.

    It was surprisingly difficult to come by the brussel sprouts, considering they are still in season.

    Wow, Dani, thanks for your contribution to people searching for recipes that can support fat-burning without giving up the yumminess! BRUSSEL SPROUTS are on my eating plan for my 2-Week Challengers; common complaint is “I hate those things”…. well, I just made em the way you suggested — Totally transformed my relationship to the damn things; they’re staying on the list now! I’ll be sending my peeps your way this weekend; prepare for upsurge in subscribers. Thank you, really. :-)
