Just in time for fall and the holidays ahead, I made this simple recipe for you to keep handy. Cheesy Cacio e Pepe Brussels Sprouts, a super delicious way to eat Brussels sprouts, can be made in the oven, air fryer or partly in a skillet. We toss the sprouts in a garlic infused olive oil, roast them, and then top them with freshly cracked pepper, Parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheese, then baked until the cheese is melted. Thats it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is cacio e pepe?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cacio e pepe, (kaa<\/strong>\u00b7chee\u00b7ow ee<\/strong> peh<\/strong>\u00b7pay<\/em>) is a classic pasta dish from Rome. Usually spaghetti is smothered in a creamy cheesy buttery black pepper sauce and thickened with starchy pasta water. Cacio e Pepe Brussels sprouts is very similar, lighter as we swap out the pasta for delicious crunchy Brussels sprouts, butter is replaced with olive oil. This makes it a lot lighter by cutting out the carbs from the pasta, yet super delicious without compromising on flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
