Brussels Sprouts Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Roasting Brussels Sprouts

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the Brussels sprouts and trim the ends, then cut them in half. Toss the halved sprouts in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well coated.

2. 2

   Bake

   Spread the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.

3. 3

   Make the Pesto

   While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the pesto. In a food processor, combine zucchini, sunflower seeds, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, basil, and salt. Blend until smooth, adding a little water if necessary to reach desired consistency.

4. 4

   Combine and Serve

   Once the Brussels sprouts are done, remove them from the oven and toss them with the zucchini and sunflower seed pesto. Serve warm.
