Beautiful Brussels sprouts in the house!!
And just in time for your Thanksgiving Feast!
Due to my procrastination tendencies in generating this post, you probably won’t read this until the afternoon. And due to YOUR procrastination tendencies, you’re out doing last-minute grocery shopping, and you won’t read this post until later anyway. This procrastination thing must come to an end in 2015. Can you say 2016 New Year’s Resolution list in the making?
But you know what, I strongly believe once a procrastinator most likely always a procrastinator. Because you and I know, once you return home and put away the groceries, you’re headed straight to the computer to check out the latest food blog posts.
I totally get it; that’s why you have me.
I made you this roasted to perfection brussels sprouts salad seasoned with fresh garlic and herbs to the likes of rosemary + thyme. I know how you love sweet, dried cranberries coupled with crunchy walnuts, so sprinkled them on, and for garnish, I thinly sliced slices of parmesan cheese to satisfy your dairy fix.
You can always, bet on Taste of Yummy; I got you covered.
Time is of the essence, log off your computer, return to the grocery store; for the second time, and pick-up the ingredients for this Brussels sprouts salad.
It’ll take all of 20 minutes to prepare.
If you need a zing in your step, which you’ll need after all the running around you’ve done, add a tablespoon or two of lemon juice.
Arrive on time if you can. Who am I kidding?! We’re kindred spirits so in that case, arrive fashionably late with this banging, beautiful platter of brussels sprouts salad.
BAM!!
Oh, I almost forgot, remember the game plan for tomorrow, drink this mixed fruit smoothie before heading out.
I’m serious, don’t throw away all the hard work you put in over the Summer.
