Check out this side dish! I was not always a big lover of brussels sprouts, but it turns out, I just needed to add cheese! This recipe is one that I came up with when I needed to add greens to my diet and all I had on hand were brussels sprouts, so I did my best to create something worth eating. Now I make this recipe at least once a week with a simple chicken entrée.
Check out my personal recipe:
