Brussels sprouts contain cancer-fighting chemicals known as glucosinolates, which help protect the stomach's lining from bad bacteria such as the kind that causes ulcers. “They’re perfect with protein-packed white beans and a healthy carb such as red quinoa,” says Philadelphia-based recipe developer Robert Luessen.
