Brussels Sprouts

Price: $2.99 per pound

Brussels sprouts are part of the traditional holiday meal in many homes, but they often aren’t greeted with the same enthusiasm as the turkey or the pecan pie. Like other members of the cabbage family, they’re rich in pungent sulfur compounds, which sometimes can give the sprouts a bitter flavor. That’s a shame, because Brussels sprouts are one of the best vegetable sources of soluble fiber, which has beneficial effects on cholesterol and blood pressure.

How to eat them

If you’d like to eat them more often but aren’t crazy about the taste, try roasting them for your next dinner party. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness in the little green globes, which might just make some converts out of those sprout-averse members of your household.
