HEALTHY ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS

Apart from being a delicious side dish that is Weight Watchers friendly, did you know that Brussels sprouts have many other health benefits? 

• Brussel sprouts are high in fibre. In just half a cup of cooked sprouts, you will find 2 grams of fibre which makes up 8% of your daily fibre needs.  
• They help you to maintain a healthy blood sugar level. This is also thanks to the high level of fibre in the sprouts which moves slowly through the body and slows the absorption of sugar into the blood. 
• They are rich in various vitamins and nutrients such as Vitamin K, Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Folate and Magnesium. 
• Brussels sprouts are also known to be rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants assist to reduce your risk of chronic disease. 

All in all, Brussel sprouts seem to be one of those foods that you should be adding to your diet. They are packed with a long list of health benefits (and I’ve only listed a few above), and they’re a quick, easy side dish or snack to prepare for yourself and the family.

If you follow this delicious Weight Watchers Brussel sprouts recipe of mine, you can also have peace of mind that you will be following a slimming recipe that is only 1 WW point per 6 sprouts eaten.

HOW TO MAKE WEIGHT WATCHERS BRUSSEL SPROUTS

It always amazes me how this little cabbage-like vegetable creates such strong opinions amongst people. There doesn’t seem to be an in between… you either love them or hate them!

This recipe goes out to all my fellow Brussels sprout lovers. You are not only going to love the taste from how these are roasted, but you can also proudly add these savoury little treats to your Weight Watchers recipes list as a snack or side dish.

These roasted Brussel sprouts are quick and easy and can be made in 15-20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 400F, cut the Brussels sprouts in half, and place them in a medium-sized bowl.

Pour olive oil over the Brussel sprouts and toss them to coat, then season with salt and pepper. If you want other seasoning for Brussel sprouts, you could also try garlic powder.

Spread the seasoned Brussel sprouts over a cookie sheet. If desired, add whole cloves of garlic to the cookie sheet as well (do not mince the garlic as it will burn).

Place the cookie sheet in the oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, stirring midway through.

Remove from the oven once the Brussel sprouts have browned.

These yummy, healthy Brussel sprouts are best enjoyed warm.
