What Are Brussels Sprouts?
Brussel sprouts are small, leafy vegetables that grow in bunches. They come from the same family as cabbage and collard greens. Brussels sprouts taste is similar to broccoli but with a more robust flavor, making them perfect for those who don’t like strong-tasting vegetables. Brussel sprouts are seasonal, so they’re not available year-round. It’s best to buy these when they’re in season because then you’ll be able to get the freshest ones!
