- Brussels sprout is a leafy green vegetable, and looks like a mini cabbage.
- They are named after Brussels, the capital of Belgium, where they were a popular 16th century crop.
- One 80-gram serving of these healthy veggies delivers four times more vitamin C than an orange.
- They’re best when roasted, grilled, steamed, or fried. Boiling them makes them soggy. Try them with bacon, onions, pecans or butter.
