(pictured with Turkey Burgers with Guac Salsa) If your memories of Brussels sprouts make you crinkle your nose, you are not alone. But it’s time to give this incredibly nutrient-dense anticancer food another chance! This recipe is one of my absolute favourites, and the Brussels taste delicious chilled the next day!

  • 2 to 3 tsp (10 to 15 mL) hot chili flakes
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) sea salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
