Introducing...brussel sprouts!!!

Yesterday involved a bit too much snacking, so today, to make up for it, I made myself a veggie filled dinner! 

My avocado was finally ripe, so I first made a salad with avocado, cucumber and tomato and squeezed lemon juice with balsamic vinegar on top as a dressing. Then I took my brussels sprouts (YAY) and roasted them in the oven at 400 degrees. I had read online that you can char the outer leaves that you peel off in a pan on the stove. They weren't amazing, but they were ok. But the brussels were super yummy! I added a bit of a no-salt seasoning I had just gotten, which must have some lemon in it or something, and they were delicious. Jyoti tried one for the first time and loved them! Definitely going to make them a staple in our house. I know my mom and dad aren't big fans, but seriously, this veggie is awesomeeee! 

Anyways, these veggies sure filled me up. And after I digested, I went to the gym and ran on the elliptical for half an hour. Feeling good!
