Garlic Lemon Roasted Brussel Sprouts.

I know, I know…”Not Brussel sprouts” I hear you cry … but the poor old sprout, even though unpopular, is so very good for our bodies!!

Brussel Sprouts contain masses of bone-loving Vitamin K, loads of Vitamin C and have a huge amount of health benefits including being anti inflammatory, packed full of anti oxidants and can also help to lower cholesterol!

Here’s a great recipe to liven up the humble brussel sprout…and if you’re still not entirely convinced at how good they are for you, take a look here!
