Today’s recipe is on behalf of #CollectiveBias and the #lovemyvinegar campaign, but all the Italian vinegar loving expressed here are mine.
Brussels sprouts always seem to be one of those veggies that get a bad reputation. I always hear how bitter and stinky they are but if you prepare them well without over cooking then you can actually get a tasty nutrition packed dish. And it’ll taste good, really good.
Always eating broccoli and cauliflower can be a drag so being able to sneak new veggies into my weekly menu is a necessity. It’s especially great when I can find ways to make a veggie into a tasty dish with the use of decently low carb tweaks like olive oil and seasoned white wine vinegar.
Olive oil and seasoned white wine vinegar can really make a difference when it comes to flavor. I know some of you are thinking, “olive oil for flavor?”
Yes, olive oil is a great choice for oiling your pan and adding an elegant flavor when stir-frying veggies. While seasoned white wine vinegar can add a unique lightly sweetened mild vinegar flavor.
