🍇 balsamic Brussels sprouts


Hi Reader,

Balsamic Glazed Brussels Sprouts with Grapes takes that classic bitter and sweet combo and makes it feel a little bit special.

The sprouts get caramelized and crispy around the edges, while the grapes turn soft, juicy, and lightly blistered, so every bite has great contrast.

You only need 4 ingredients plus salt and pepper, and everything cooks on one sheet pan in about 30 minutes.

It is easy enough for a busy weeknight, but pretty enough for your holiday table.

Love and Veggies,

Amy

You don't even need breadcrumbs. The filling is grain free and features tangy sun-dried tomatoes, meaty walnuts, and garlic. And while they make a crowd-pleasing appetizer, I also love them as an entree alongside mashed potatoes or rice and vegetables. Reader Emilie said, “We brought these to a...

Hi Reader, While I’m not much of a baker, I do love easy no-bake treats this time of year. They’re perfect for holiday gatherings and cookie parties. One of my favorites is 2-ingredient vegan fudge. It’s just as rich and creamy as the classic version. And you don’t need a double boiler or any special equipment. Whip up a batch in 5 minutes, let it chill, and enjoy!
