BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Brussels sprouts are small, round, green vegetables, almost always about 1 to 2 inches wide. They belong to the cabbage family, including kale, broccoli, collard greens, and cauliflower. Brussels sprouts look like miniature cabbages, but they are milder in flavor.
Brussels sprouts are mushy to eat when cooked; they can also be served raw when crumbled. They are packed with nutrients and can be included in many meals.
