“I wasn’t always a fan of Brussels sprouts as a kid. I remember that I used to hide them under my napkin just so that I could be excused from the dinner table. What was I thinking? I LOVE THEM now! If you are not a fan of Brussels sprouts, you have probably been preparing them wrong. I sometimes finely slice them and fry them with grass-fed butter and bacon bits, or roast them until crispy (like I have done here) and serve covered with grated Parmesan. If you love Brussels sprouts as much as I do, please check out the Brown-buttered Brussels Sprouts recipe. Both are an excellent side dish to your protein to complete a healthy keto meal.” – Monya

Brussels sprouts are relatively low in carbohydrates, making them a great choice for keto. The fibre content in Brussels sprouts can also help you feel full and satisfied. This is beneficial when following a low-carb diet like keto. Fiber also aids in digestive health.
 
Brussels sprouts are a good source of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, and potassium. These nutrients are important for overall health and well-being.
 
Parmesan cheese adds healthy fats to the dish, which is essential in a keto diet. The fats in Parmesan are primarily saturated and monounsaturated fats, both of which are suitable for keto.
