Is everyone ready to detox from all the Halloween candy yet? I couldn't wait for it to be out of my house. There is just no need for a huge bucket of candy when two of three people in the household are either a toddler or a Type 1 diabetic! So glad it is gone.
This is the perfect recipe for returning to healthy eating, not to mention probably the last thing your kids want to be served after eating candy for a week straight ;-) I don't know why brussels sprouts get such a bad rap - these little guys are delicious, and cute too! This recipe was very simple and used hardly any ingredients. It was perfect for a weeknight side dish. But I feel inclined to warn you, roasting these tiny green veggies will stink up your house. Something awful! So even though they are delicious, don't add them to your menu when you are having guest over that you need to impress.
