Dairy Free In the Kitchen ~ Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Last night for dinner we have had so far our most successful dairy free meal. Dinner was Rotini veggie pasta with skinless all beef kielbasi and roasted Brussels sprouts. Everyone ate up all the pasta, my son was not interested in the meat but he did try the sprouts, I just think they were to thick for him to chew, but he kept trying. I gave him and his sister some watermelon for trying something new.

Today I am going to share with you the Brussels sprout recipe that i tried last night that was a major success with my picky eater husband and my I won't try anything green daughter that they both loved. And Completely dairy free. Brussels sprouts are a semi time consuming side to make and it takes 20-25 min to bake so plan accordingly so that other things will finish around the same time.
