Family Time in the Kitchen: Creating Recipes with My Son
Over the last few years, my son has developed an interest in cooking. His talent is pretty impressive. For this recipe, he wanted to make sweet and salty Brussels sprouts for dinner, so we created this healthy dinner recipe together.
We’ve been so busy lately that we haven’t been eating as healthily as I would like.
We often get home late and eat whatever leftovers or quick foods we can. When we went to the grocery store the other night, I picked up a bag of pre-washed, trimmed Brussels sprouts.
When my son saw the bag, he was excited. Yes, he loves Brussels sprouts.
Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Maple Syrup and Soy Sauce Recipe Created by Mom and Son
We worked together to come up with a roasted Brussels sprouts recipe. When I asked what we should use for seasoning, he suggested making roasted Brussels sprouts with maple syrup and soy sauce.
He wanted to make a sweet and savory Brussels sprouts dish. So we made Maple Soy Brussel Sprouts.
In a bowl, we mixed the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, maple syrup, and soy sauce. After giving it a taste, we put the Brussels sprouts in our small Cuisinart toaster oven set at 400 degrees.
You can also use an air fryer, but shorten the cooking time and check on them often.
You’ve eaten dehydrated fruit, and it’s still real fruit. Earth Breeze Laundry Sheets are along the same lines. They’re actual laundry detergent but made in eco-friendly sheets. They’re just dehydrated laundry sheets that come in cardboard envelopes.
After 28 minutes, they were ready to come out. Then, we gave them a try. We decided the Brussels sprouts needed just a little more salt. So, I sprinkled them with some Kosher salt, and voila! Between the two of us, we finished every last sprout.
Here is the roasted Brussels sprouts recipe created by mom and son. We hope you like it as much as we did.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts In An Air Fryer or Instant Pot
Roasting Brussels Sprouts in an air fryer also works well. Unfortunately, we can’t tell you a magic number of minutes to cook them because air fryers come in so many shapes and sizes right now.
We suggest you pay attention to the outside leaves browning, and then take them out and try them.
