Last Sunday I started dreaming about today. Wishing and hoping. All because I wanted this brunch.
Mornings during the weekday leave me no time for breakfast preparation. That is why I always have breakfast tacos in the freezer ready to go. (And that totally sounded like a commercial.)
But the weekends is when I make breakfast a brunch thing. Seriously. It usually involves tortillas and potatoes or a hash. Oh how I love breakfast hash!
This idea (because it’s more of an idea than a recipe) came from my Sweet Potato and Brussels Sprouts hash. You have to make it!
But I wanted something different and my other favorite way to make Brussels sprouts is roasting them. A little olive oil, salt and pepper and you have the perfect side dish. And when the leaves turn black and crispy. Oh. Em. Gee. Better than French fries. No kidding.
So grab a roasting pan and a bowl and make this breakfast bowl asap. This will make enough for breakfast or brunch for two. And is Weight Watchers friendly. Go easy on the olive oil and you have a points friendly satisfying meal.
