This morning I put on a pot of coffee and got busy in the kitchen!
I had pan-roasted brussel sprouts on my mind and nothing was going to change that.
Not even the early morning hour.
So I chopped them up, drizzled them with olive oil and salt and popped ‘em in the oven!
Pecans + brussel sprouts is a match made in heaven. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.
These will most certainly be my lunch. Whether or not I add anything else to them is TBD…
Happy Monday people!

Gorgeous photos today!! Love, love, love brussels and you.
Thanks friend!
And I love, love, love YOU right back!!
i love brussels sprouts any time of the day, but particularly in the morning with scrambled eggs! yum.
Agreed! Such a great combo!
i agree 100%. amazing!! i’m glad there are people out there who love sprouts as much as i do. i think i’ve had them every day (if not twice a day) for the past 3 years!
Haha I love that!! I’m glad you appreciate their greatness as much as I do
Cait, I love your photos! Your cup of java always looks so frothy and delicious! Have you ever used a hand held frother? I used it the other day for my coffee and I thought of you because it seems you really enjoy coffee! Basically, you just warm about a 1/4c of milk in the microwave and use the frother to whip the milk. I then pour the foamed milk into my coffee and you have a frothy, fluffy homemade latte!

I have! I actually have one but have kind of gotten away (I think I over-frothed a bit!). But that reminds me that I should pull it out again for a treat!
Nothing like putting on a pot of coffee and spending the afternoon baking/cooking away. Sounds wonderful.
Agreed!
It really was wonderful, I have to say!
I’m glad I’m not the only crazy one who roasts veggies before the sun comes up. This morning I was roasting potatoes and squash.
Ahahaha I love that!! You are definitely not alone there – I love that you did it too!
It’s never too early for brussels sprouts! I love roasted brussels. They are just so good
Agreed!
ok.. people always make fun of me for craving steamed veggies in the morning. This looks divine. Glad im not the only one who craves green in the morning lol.
Haha – you are most definitely not the only one!
