Yum, yum, yum guys. Or as my mother would say, “Yum-o!”.
This Thanksgiving side is not only healthy, but is freakishly delicious.
Like, I made this last week, and ate it like it was candy within a day.
I love this as a Thanksgiving side because it literally is so good for you. The amount of fiber and nutrition in the sweet potatos and brussels sprouts is incredible. Since Thanksgiving is such a filling Holiday, it is important to have just a few healthier options.
Since this is exactly what I’ll be bringing to Thanksgiving, I figured I had to share it.
This recipe is not only easy to make, but the roasted crispiness of vegetables will even have all of your most non-vegetable family members getting seconds.
