Brussels sprouts aren’t the most popular vegetable in the world, but we love them. When your entree is mild, and you need a hearty side dish, brussels sprouts are the perfect answer.

Here, I’ve mixed them with slices of yellow onion and an orange bell pepper. With a little freshly ground black pepper and a generous amount of olive oil, saute until tender. Sometimes I also add ham, chopped into very small pieces, or bacon bits.

Bonus… brussels sprouts are a cinch to prepare and pack a powerful nutritional punch!
