My husband and I are obsessed with this Brussels Sprouts Salad with Blueberries & Almonds. It is so delicious, healthy, and a great way to incorporate these cruciferous vegetables into your diet, which are packed with nutrients like vitamin C, fiber, and potassium. The combination of sweet blueberries, crunchy almonds, and savory Brussels sprouts is sure to please even the pickiest eaters. Even my father who hates vegetables of any kind, said it was delicious.
