Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Garlic, Lemon, and Feta

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Garlic, Lemon, and Feta

My first attempt at Brussels sprouts was a big success with my entire family but my husband said he wanted to try it with lemon next time. I simply seasoned these fresh Brussels sprout halves in olive oil, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste then drizzled a bit of lemon juice on them before roasting. I then sautéed some garlic with olive oil then tossed the Brussels sprouts in the pan and squeezed more lemon juice on top and tossed it to coat evenly. Once they were in the serving bowl, I sprinkled the top with feta cheese. They turned out delicious and my husband and I both really liked them a lot, my kids, on the other hand, were not fans. Oh well, you can’t win them all.

  1. That sounds like a very tasty way to prepare brussels sprouts!
    Footnote: I think there are VERY few kids that like brussels sprouts even you prepare them the most delicious way 🙂

  2. I’m just beginning to try Bussels sprouts. I haven’t been much of a fan in the past. I’ve tried a few recipes lately that have changed my mind. This looks like it will make a difference and I look forward to make this. Thanks! Angie from White River Kitchen
