I have invited my talented husband Brandon to share his Brussels Sprouts recipe with you!
Brandon has been so supportive to me and Vitalized Body. The revamped website you are witnessing is mainly due to his professional and creative efforts. Thanks, Brandon!
Bonus points – He has a passionate flair for cooking healthy dishes that are scrumptious. The first recipe that he will be showcasing is his “Brandon’s Brussels Sprouts”. And, yes they are Extra! Read about the health benefit of Brussels Sprouts here.
Sorry Bobby Flay, Brandon’s cooking is on fire these days!
It started out innocently enough, when we first started dating I walked into Brandon’s apartment and was pleasantly surprised to see an assortment of cookbooks in his kitchen. He quickly began to steal my heart with his culinary skills and passion for combining flavors… the wine helped out too. As we moved forward with our relationship our friendship and love grew, and his flair for cooking erupted. Here we are nine years later and I just had to ask him to share his recipes with you! Without further ado, here we are!
Brandon’s Brussels Sprouts is a simple, yet delicious recipe that is vegan and gluten-free. This recipe is mouthwatering, easy to prepare, and a flavorful alternative to steamed Brussels Sprout.
Try it out and leave a comment telling us how you liked it. Enjoy!
