The main ingredients are grape tomatoes – either from a homegrown garden bounty or store bought in the pint containers, so you can make this year-round - olive oil, garlic, Italian herbs, pasta, parmesan cheese, or vegan parm, seasoned salt and pepper – most of these ingredients are likely already in your fridge and pantry.

The flavours in this recipe are so delicious – a great blend of individual flavours and spices that go so well together. Brussels sprouts lend themselves so nicely to cooking to a crispy state, and are so healthy for us. The carrot and apple lend sweetness and the kielbasa makes it all so toothsome. The caraway seeds and sauce are delicious and tie the whole dish together! And it is loaded with great healthful nutrition. It doesn’t take long to make so lunch or dinner are on the table quickly.
