Umami Brussels Sprouts | Plaid and Paleo

I feel like it has been forever since I did a vegetable post. Okay so I did post the bloomin’ onion a couple days ago. Evidently my memory isn’t to hot right now. I blame the weather. I’ve lost track of my days with all the snow. Well anyways, I usually try to include a veggie in every one of my meals except I have fallen into a little bit of a rut. I love brussels sprouts, but I tend to just roast them up with a little ghee, salt and pepper.

After reading other bloggers rave about Red Boat fish sauce, I finally picked up a bottle at my local Whole Foods. Fish sauce and tomato together create the flavor umami. I can’t even explain what umami truly tastes like. To me it is undesirable, but I will give it a go. These umami brussels sprouts are a little savory, a little sweet and a little salty. To me they are simple delicious! I definitely recommend embracing fish sauce! I know it might sound gross. Honestly it doesn’t smell wonderful, but the flavor it adds is out of this world!
