Inspiration

I had some homegrown potatoes, and I had Brussels Sprouts, and I really like this recipe, so I added to it!

Closing

This was a really good addition to the original. To make a full meal, you will want to add a protein on the side (I used beans). I considered adding beans to this recipe, but sided against it. I was afraid it would add a texture I was not looking for. With that said, I think this tasted better than the original (and I make it alllll the time), and there is just so much colour!

Do you add to existing recipes, and if so, do you usually have a good experience when you do so?
