Brussels sprouts uncooked and unseasoned don't taste too good, in most people's opinions.
Depending on the conditions they were grown in, they can taste really bitter or not bitter at all. It sucks because they are actually good for you.
You never really know what your going to get at the store but there are a few things you can do to make easy Brussels Sprouts taste better.
Season or Sauce your Brussels Sprouts - When I say season, I mean drown them in something - seasoning, sauce, anything.
I know you're probably chuckling, but it's true. If you fry Brussels Sprouts in bacon fat, you are drowning them in salty, fatty goodness. If you add salt and pepper, you are covering up the flavor with other seasons.
Roasted Brussels Sprouts - You can toss Brussels Sprouts with olive oil and sea salt and bake them in the oven at 425F for 14-20 minutes or until they are brown and turn crunchy.
Super tasty! But I think any vegetable cooked this way is tasty.
Roasted and Sauced - Here me out... what if your roasted your Brussels sprouts AND covered them in sauce? Maybe a sauce that's a mix of mayonnaise and sriracha?
Delicious and you're still getting the benefits of eating vegetables.
Brussels Sprouts are little vegetables that look like cabbages harvested too early. They are in the same vegetable family as cabbage but they are not little cabbages.

Can you freeze brussel sprouts
Yes, you can freeze brussel sprouts. We often pick up bags of frozen brussel sprouts at the store when they are not in season. Frozen brussel sprouts are also less expensive than fresh brussel sprouts.
Frozen brussel sprouts are usually flash frozen and retain their nutrients. They can last in the freezer for up to six months, depending on the freezer.
How long do brussel sprouts last in the fridge
Uncooked, fresh brussel sprouts can last up to a few week in the fridge. Brussel sprouts on the stalk will stay fresh longer than those sold individually. If you don't cook them within a week, we recommend freezing them.

These keto brussel sprouts will stay good in the fridge for up to 4 days in a sealed container. We love meal prepping, and we've frozen meals that we've prepped that included these parmesan brussel sprouts, and they are still just as good when we reheat the meal.
