<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">I hope you&#8217;re enjoying the beautiful fall weather. The garden is officially done, even though oddly we&#8217;ve been experiencing rather warm temperatures this past week. But with several weeks of cold temperatures at night, frost, and even SNOW there was nothing we could do to extend the season. </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">Sadly I ripped out my last tomato plant last week and started the process of planting garlic. That&#8217;s always the last thing we do before winter, that and clean the chicken coop of course before it gets too cold. The chickens are molting so the coop is a mess and filled with feathers. </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">We&#8217;ve also been busy creating our new growing area. It was a project we had to put on the back burner for a while. Our wood planters have been in rough shape for a while and were starting to crumble and upheave in areas, which made it hard to keep the critters out. I can&#8217;t wait to share more about this project in the coming months ð.</p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">Like I said before I LOVE Brussels Sprouts and to my surprise so do my kids. Growing up I don&#8217;t recall eating brussels sprouts. Maybe only the kind found in a frozen stir-fry mix. I never knew how delicious brussels sprouts could actually be until I started ordering them at restaurants. </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">If you&#8217;re looking to become more inspired or learn to love Brussels sprouts try ordering them at restaurants. There are so many ways to cook them. Today, I&#8217;m going to show you a super easy way to make them at home. </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">Years ago we tried growing Brussels Sprouts but unfortunately, they didn&#8217;t end up growing very big. I really enjoyed seeing how they grew. If you didn&#8217;t know, brussels sprouts form as buds along the main stem of the plant. They love sun which is something my garden bed was lacking. I would love to try growing them again in a sunnier location! </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Next, you&#8217;ll need to prep your Brussels Sprouts. They can be tedious. You&#8217;ll want to wash them first. Just dump them in a strainer and rinse them. Next grab a cutting board, knife, and 2 bowls. You will need to cut off the base of the stem. Then peel off the first layer of leaves. Some may have more blemishes than others. If so, just take off more leaves or cut the icky part off. You can choose to cut your Brussels sprouts in half or leave them whole. I&#8217;ve cooked them both ways and they are still delicious! </p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">Now that your Brussels Sprouts are prepped you&#8217;ll need to grab a sheet pan, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Dump the brussels sprouts on the sheet pan, and drizzle them with olive oil. Make sure you&#8217;ve added enough. If you don&#8217;t add enough olive oil they will become dry. Toss them around to insure they are all coated with olive oil. Next spread them out evenly and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Now they are ready for the oven.</p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">Start by cooking them for 30 mins in the already-preheated oven at 350 degrees. You can always increase the temperature to speed up the process. I guess it depends on what else you are cooking right? At the time I was cooking a <a href="https://youtu.be/DKx021NbSyY" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">buttercup squash</a> and some <a href="https://youtu.be/rS8w9hn3sEU" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">herb-roasted potatoes. </a> Check out these recipes on my Youtube Channel.</p>

<p class="has-karla-font-family has-custom-font wp-block-paragraph" style="font-family:Karla;font-size:20px">Make sure to check your Brussels Sprouts after 30 mins. If you like them to be crispy like me then cook them a little longer. I like when they are golden brown and crispy. But I know not everyone likes them that way. One secret I&#8217;ve discovered is Brussels Sprouts are so delicious dipped in blue cheese dressing. OH MY&#8230;You&#8217;ve got to try it!! ð</p>
