Brussels sprouts--you either love 'em or you hate 'em. The same thing goes with blue cheese. So, depending on which camp you're in, you've either already clicked off this recipe or you've already added it to next week's meal plan. It's okay. I get it.
Obviously, I'm a total lover of Brussels sprouts and blue cheese. The bluer the better, actually. I especially love sprouts when they're roasted. I just can't get enough of the crispy exterior and tender interior. To me, it's one of the best textural combinations. With creamy, salty blue cheese on top, you're really can't go wrong. Well, as long as you like sprouts and blue cheese, that is.
