5 Brussels Sprouts Recipes to Enjoy This Fall

Brussels sprouts belong on more than the holiday table. Roast them with apples, pair them with sweet potatoes, wrap them in bacon, or let them char beside chicken for dinner.

Their earthy flavor works especially well with the rich, sweet, and tangy ingredients we reach for in fall.

These five Cook Plate Fork recipes include four flavorful sides and one easy dinner. Pick one for tonight, or save a few for the cooler weeks ahead.
