How to Make Simple Roasted Whole 30 Brussels Sprouts with Peppers
Step 1: Prep the Brussels Sprouts and Bell Peppers
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and trim the Brussels sprouts. Cut each sprout in half, ensuring the cut sides are facing down. This will help achieve those crispy edges we all love. Then cut the red pepper into medium size strips. Place them in single layer on the lined baking sheet.
Step 2: Season
Mix up the seasonings and sprinkle over the vegetables. Then drizzle the avocado oil over the top. Mix everything to combine well.
Step 3: Roasting the Brussels Sprouts and Peppers
Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the veggies are golden. Remove from the oven when done and sprinkle the basil over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy this healthy side dish that pairs perfectly with any protein sources like bison meatloaf, a fried egg or grilled chicken.
How to Store Leftovers
