My 5-year old loves Brussels sprouts and broccoli, and this is her favorite way to eat them! It’s so delicious that I thought I’d also share it with you guys.
After all the cheesy pasta dishes I posted this winter, I really owed you a recipe with some vitamins and fiber…..
Ingredients
- 1 small cauliflower (or ½ one large)
- 1 head broccoli
- about 12 Brussels Sprouts
- 1 red onion
- 12 black or red grapes
- 12 white grapes
- ½ cup pine nuts
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 thyme sprig
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Cut the cauliflower and the broccoli into pieces, and halve the Brussels sprouts. Cook all three vegetables separately until tender but firm: you can steam them for about 10 minutes or cook them in your microwave (covered with plastic wrap, leaving an opening for the steam) for about 4 or 5.
Halve the grapes, and eliminate any seeds.
Heat the oil in a skillet. Cut the onion in very thin slices and sauté them in the oil with the grapes for about 5 minutes. Add the cooked cauliflower, broccoli and Brussels sprouts, and cook for 8 more minutes. Toast the pine nuts in the oven or in a second skillet brushed with little oil. Add the pine nuts to the veggie medley, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 1 more minute. Decorate with the thyme and serve.

Well, I love Brussels sprouts too and this recipe looks so pretty. I am astounded that your 5 year old likes brussies — bravo to you. Or should I say her for even trying them.
This recipe is so beautiful!
My kids love brussels sprouts too, but only with cheese. This looks like a great alternative that they would love.
How impressive that your little one likes her veggies. Sometimes some kids are just impossible. You are doing something right. This looks great!
i love everything about this recipe! i hope my steven likes to eat this when he’s 5. right now he’ll eat anything, but i hear that changes with toddlerhood…
What an interesting combination of flavors and textures.
Questo mi sembra buonissimo, stasera provo!
amazing colors! it sounds really healthy too
What a beautiful presentation! And how cute that Bianca likes such a sophisticated (and healthy) salad!
What a healthy side dish! I love brussels sprouts!
I love all of the ingredients! It sounds fabulous. Love the idea of adding the grapes. Heading to the store, XOXO
I love the idea of the grapes and pinenuts. This is texture and taste central. Brilliant – anything to get the kids to eat their veggies!
