Brussels Sprouts

Tonight I made tilapia and Brussels sprouts for dinner, both steamed with a little Teryaki sauce added to the water. Both kids basically cleaned their plates, and Alex declared “this vegetable is delicious! So yummy, Mommy.” And asked for seconds. So please, everyone, don’t tell my children that most kids their age hate Brussels sprouts. They are a fave around these parts.

(The trick, by the way, with the Brussels sprouts is to cut them in half lengthwise before cooking. My kids, at least, really love to see the intricacies of the pattern of the sprout).
