For my veggie, I tried something I hate. I know I hate it but thought I'd try it a different way and maybe not hate it so much. It's moved THISMUCH on the foods I hate scale but still really doesn't make me happy. Brussels sprouts. They were steamed with sea salt and cracked pepper. I still had to douse them in chicken juice and more marinade before I could choke them down and had to cut them into slices so they didn't look like leafy testicles anymore. They are so disgusting but have so many vitamins. Nature's truly cruel.



I had to wash the taste down with some gummy bears and flavored water.

I've found that explosive taste of Brussel sprouts can be disguised by slicing them, ( like you would a head of lettuce, to almost the thick core) sautéing them in butter with salt and pepper, squeeze lemon over it. It tastes so much better. (Even with browned edges, if you turn up the heat. Add other goodies, garlic, sunflower seeds, be creative.)

You do this with spinach, or any other greens...get all the benefits while tasting so good.

Try it again!
