Monday:
meal prep monday pigs in a blanket (use up crescent rolls in fridge)
roasted sweet potato cubes (I cook them much longer - until caramelized)
roasted brussel sprouts (I kinda wing this recipe, so take these directions with a huge grain of salt)
- i buy shredded brussel sprouts from HEB or Trader Joe's, I toss them in olive oil and generously sprinkle with garlic salt. I cook in an oven at 400 degrees (move the rack to the top third of the oven) and I cook until browned and crispy (like 30ish minutes? I DON'T KNOW). Then I drizzle them with TJ's Balsamic Glaze and put back in the oven for 2-3 miutes.
