Brussels sprouts recipes and fat loss- They are back in season

brussels-sprouts

Brussels are back, well they’ve never been away I suppose you can always get your hands on them these days  There was a really big display in my local Waitrose today.

Brussels or ‘mini cabbages’as we used to call them when we were kids are a great vegetable to eat if you are on a weight loss regime.  Like cabbage they are high in fibre and low in carbohydrates and I think they are absolutely delicious.

Some people in the UK tend to have a negative association with sprouts, usually being a bit bitter and cooked to death at school dinner time.

All I do to cook them is remove the outer leaves if they are discoloured and then pop them into a saucepan with a small amount of water, once they are cooked I drain them and put a glug of olive oil and some salt and pepper  on them and give them a stir back in the pan.

I’ll bring you a few more brussel sprout recipes as we move through autumn and winter
