Brussel sprouts might not be the most desirable vegetable, but when they are sautéed with bacon, they tend to become a popular side dish. Brussel sprouts are high on the satiety index and rich in vitamin C, fiber and antioxidants. Pair this with your favorite protein and you have a healthy, wholesome dish!

When we visited Australia we noticed many of the local cafes were offering muesli. As someone who’s favorite meal is breakfast, I quickly became curious about this food.
