BRUSSELS SPROUTS | NUTRIENT-PACKED POWERHOUSE
Brussels sprouts are an excellent source of vitamins C and K, as well as fiber and antioxidants. These cruciferous vegetables support heart health, boost the immune system, and aid in digestion. Rich in sulforaphane, Brussels sprouts also have cancer-fighting properties and promote detoxification, making them a superfood for overall wellness.
GARLIC | IMMUNE-BOOSTING AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY
Garlic is known for its immune-boosting properties and natural ability to combat inflammation. It contains allicin, a sulfur compound with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects. Garlic also supports heart health by helping to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. When roasted, garlic takes on a mellow, sweet flavor that perfectly complements the Brussels sprouts.
TAHINI | CREAMY AND NUTRIENT-DENSE
Tahini is a creamy paste made from ground sesame seeds, and it’s rich in healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron. This nutty sauce is not only great for adding flavor, but it also supports bone health, provides sustained energy, and aids in muscle function. Its richness pairs beautifully with the roasted Brussels sprouts, creating a luxurious drizzle.
LEMON JUICE | NATURAL DETOXIFIER AND DIGESTIVE AID
Lemon juice is a great source of vitamin C and antioxidants, which help detoxify the body and support skin health. It also promotes healthy digestion and helps balance the body’s pH levels. The acidity of lemon juice brightens up the dish, balancing the richness of the tahini drizzle and complementing the savory garlic flavor.
