Brussels Sprouts

Brussels sprouts boast high levels of many nutrients and have been linked to several health benefits. Children may find Brussels sprouts to be a fearsome green vegetable, but when steamed, this high-protein vegetable makes for a nutritious and appealing side dish.


According to the USDA, Brussels sprouts have the following protein concentration:

  • 4 grams per 1 cup
  • 2.6 grams per 100 grams
  • 14.2 grams per 200-calorie serving

Not only being a vegetable packed in protein, but Brussels sprouts are also a great source of iron. The increased risk of iron deficiency is one of the drawbacks of being vegan. Brussel sprouts can help you meet your daily iron needs if you eat a plant-based diet. Most grocery stores have Brussels sprouts all year long in the fresh produce section. Avoid picking any Brussels sprouts that are fading or turning yellow. Instead, opt for Brussels sprouts that are bright green and firm to the touch.
