If you know me, you know that I am not really a vegetable person.
In fact, for a time, I refused to eat anything green. Or blue...but that's a different story.
I have come to realize lately that my claim of despising veggies is not really accurate.
I happen to really enjoy veggies...as long as they are made properly.
If you roast a vegetable, I am all in!!
I have tried tossing my broccoli in bread crumbs before I roast it, so I decided one day to throw some brussels sprouts in there too. This is now my favorite way to eat them!
And they are SOOOO easy!!
These veggies make a great side dish or an awesome afternoon snack.
Let's cook!
Toss your florets and sprouts in some olive oil, salt, pepper, bread crumbs, and parmesan cheese.
Place the veggies in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them up!
Serve and enjoy!!!
You can't get better, or easier, than that!!!
