Winter is here and the cooler weather makes me want to cook more. One of the things I like to cook is veggies. When I cook my veggies, I like to slow roast them in the oven. The roasting brings out a wonderful sweet taste to veggies. My veggie-hating husband loves roasted veggies and will eat them right out of the oven. I like to oven roast many types of veggies but my favorite veggie to roast is Brussels sprouts. I recently started oven roasting eggplant and love the way it tastes. The oven brings out a great taste to eggplant. I use to only eat eggplant covered in cheese and tomato sauce. I added the zucchini to the mix as I had some in the fridge that needed to be used up. The pumpkin seeds add a wonderful crunch to the roasted veggies. The one item that really brings out the flavor and sweetness of the roasted veggies is Real Salt. Now I know what you are thinking, salt is salt. I use to think that too until I tried Redmond Real Salt. This wonderful tasting salt comes from the sea and has nothing added to it, unlike other salts.
Brussels Sprouts are:
~ Sweet
~ Healthy
~ Tender
~ Loaded with fiber
~ Full of nutrients
~ Delicious
~ Little cabbages
I was sent a bottle of Real Salt, along with onion, garlic, and seasoned salt from Redmond when I requested to try their Earth Paste toothpaste. I first tried it on potatoes and loved the way it tasted, so I just had to use it on my roasted veggie. I now have a new salt in my house as it is that good. This salt has some great benefits too.

ReplyDeleteYou always come up with such delicious ideas. Those brussel sprouts are looking mighty, mighty fine to me!
ReplyDeleteRoasted vegetables, a big favourite in my house. Eggplant and zucchini, or aubergine and courgette as they are known here in the UK are among my favourite vegetables but Brussel sprouts, just uttering the words is considered swearing in my family
ReplyDeleteI love roasted vegetables. This looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what it taste, I love healthy foods, I'm gonna try this one.
ReplyDeleteThe thought of brussel sprouts makes me frown. The only way I've ever eaten them is boiled, so maybe, just maybe, this recipe would change my mind about them.
ReplyDeleteThese are all wonderful vegetables to me and I do like them all. I also like to use Real Salt, it is wonderful.

ReplyDeleteThank you for another essential article. Where else could anyone get that kind of information in such a complete way of writing? I have a presentation incoming week, and I am on the lookout for such information. For more info have a peek here see more details about halogen oven
ReplyDeleteThis is a keeper... the family insists on adding this dish to our Thanksgiving menu. Thank You! Lori Calzadillas
ReplyDeleteI added sliced fennel to the recipe since I had one around I needed to cook.I used pink Himalayan salt, freshly crushed. My husband who doesn't roasted eggplants had seconds, and we had to stop my 9 year old (who doesn't like any vegetables) from having all the Brussels sprouts!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm missing it, but when is the maple syrup added? Before baking or when tossing in the pumpkin seeds?
ReplyDeleteSorry about that, I have updated the recipe to show that you add the maple syrup with the pumpkin seeds.
DeleteI tried this sauce on turkey meatballs last night and served them to my very picky children and their even pickier cousins. What a HUGE hit! I cannot thank you enough – you’ve added a new staple to their diets .
