I have gone from a little ginger baby hating veggies to an adult appreciating the nutrition they bring to each meal. Part of ‘leaning-out’ during my whole 30 process is eating more vegetables. Although I will readily admit I do not reach for veggies when hungry, I have learned to prepare them in a healthy and delicious way.
Brussel Sprouts are one of my favorites. Last night I was craving salt and crunch and wanted a nice complement to some yummy pork burgers I had whipped up. After looking through the pantry, I found we had a whole bottle of Organic Meyer Lemon Olive Oil and brussel sprouts – perfect and easy for Lemon Roasted Brussel Sprouts. An important note is that the Olive Oil is from a local specialty store that features all natural organic olive oils- aka there is no added sugar.
