The Magic of Brussel Sprouts!

The magic of Brussel Sprouts 💚😍

Brussel sprouts are a delicious vegetable that can provide us with some pretty amazing benefits and nutritional support.

Here are just a few of this veggies nourishing properties:

*Cruciferous Veggie- Cruciferous vegetables are known for their ability to support our livers in detoxing any harmful or excess substances from the body including emotions!

*High in Fiber-Getting enough fiber is crucial for a healthy #gutmicrobiome, supporting our digestion, and keeping our blood sugar levels stable

*High in Vitamin K- a vital nutrient needed for bone health and blood clotting

*Good Source of Omega 3 ALA- this is especially beneficial for those of us eating a Plant Based lifestyle. Omega 3 supports our immune system, heart & lung health.

*High in Antioxidants which support our cells in being healthy and provides anti-inflammatory properties

I love to prep my brussel sprouts by peeling the outer leaves and then slicing them in half and storing them in the fridge. When I am ready for a meal, I then toss a handful of sprouts along with some other veggies into my Instant Pot and cook them on high for 1 minute (w/quick release)

I find that prepped brussel sprouts last for about a week in the fridge and I have also had success with cooking and then freezing them for a quick meal.

Have you tried brussel sprouts?

If so, how do you like to prepare them?

Take Care & Happy Friday!
