If I had to choose my absolute favorite vegetable, I would hands down choose Brussels Sprouts. I usually make Brussels Sprouts in the winter months, but one of my favorite Summer side dishes is grilled Brussels Sprouts. For this recipe, I coated the sprouts in a stone-ground mustard marinade before wrapping in foil and grilling. They turned out delicious-I’m loving the slight char on the edges of the leaves! The mustard gives the dish a nice bite, while the maple syrup gives it a little sweetness. This was a really yummy side dish to grilled salmon and potatoes. It came together in under 20 minutes, which is always a win in my book. In addition, when it’s cooked in foil, there are less dishes to do when dinner is over (double win!). I’m loving the grill so much this summer, I can easily see myself grilling well into the Fall. My pup loves when we grill too, because we hang out more outside. Look how cute he looks in the picture below! What’s your favorite veggie to grill? I’m always up for trying new things!
Next week I will be in Punta Cana with my husband soaking up the last little bit of summer, so I may be MIA on the blog/Facebook/Instagram depending on how the wifi is at our resort.
ALSO, congratulations to Sarah N, who won my Giveaway from last week!
