Maple Miso Brussels Sprouts

INGREDIENTS

4 cups brussels sprouts, halved

¼ cups slivered almonds

Dressing

1 Tbsp olive oil

2 tsp Dijon mustard

2 tsp maple syrup

1 tsp miso

1 tsp balsamic vinegar

2 Tbsp fresh orange juice

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400 °F

2. Thoroughly wash and cut brussels sprouts in half. Remove any brown or yellow outer leaves. Add to large bowl. Toss with olive oil, salt and pepper.

3. Transfer to a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake 15-20 minutes (toss half way through), until they are brown and outer leaves are crispy.

4. When they’re almost done, remove from oven and add the slivered almonds and half the dressing. Toss to coat, then return to the oven for another 5 minutes. You don’t want the almonds to burn.

5. Remove from oven, drizzle remaining miso dressing on, mix to coat evenly.

6. Transfer to serving dish, garnish with shredded parmesan if you want, and enjoy!

Spotlight on Brussels Sprouts

👀 Read to the end for an easy Brussels sprouts recipe!

Brussels sprouts are in season all winter long and pack a nutritional punch.

Consider this:

✅ Brussels sprouts contain more protein than most vegetables—clocking in at 3 grams per cup!

✅ Brussels sprouts are cruciferous vegetables (along with broccoli and kale). That means they contain sulfur compounds that support detoxification and cellular health. 

✅ 1 cup of Brussels sprouts meets the recommended daily requirement for both vitamin C (think immune health) and vitamin K (think bone health). 

Want a simple and delicious way to prepare them?

Wash and slice them in half. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400 until desired crispness on the outside and tenderness on the inside 😋
