Brussels sprouts are a good source of potassium with far fewer calories per gram then potatoes because they are not as starchy. They contain 3g of fiber per 100g and are a source of protein as well. Interestingly, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">brussels</span> sprouts have sucrose, fructose and glucose. This is an example of a naturally occurring sugar which is NOT empty calories. </span></p><p><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#330000;"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;">If you roast them as described above - you will keep all the good that comes naturally without adding fat from frying them. Monounsaturated fat is heart healthy, however, so you might consider drizzling a teaspoon (olive, canola, peanut oil) over your finished product</span>!</span></p>
