Best Ever Balsamic Brussels Sprouts:

Ok, so I have never been a fan of Brussels sprouts before.. so don't knock them until you try them!  These are by far the best ever Brussels sprouts.  Even your man and/or kids will like!  I have taken on my health since last February and my boyfriend Scott is now along for the adventure.  During dinner he admitted "I don't think I've ever had brussels sprouts.... and enjoyed them before". 

YES!  Healthy and tasty is my goal!!

Roasting them at a high temperature with balsamic and a tiny bit of oil olive has them caramelize to perfection!  I am an experimenter in the kitchen so add or subtract the extras as you see fit.. use your inner chef's intuition! 

Balsamic Brussels Sprouts:

Ingredients:

1 bunch of Brussels sprouts (approximately 4 cups)

1 TBSP olive oil *if more liquid needed try 1 TSP of veg or chicken broth!

1-2 TBSP balsamic vinegar

1- 2 garlic glove smashed

pinch of hot pepper flakes (optional)

salt and pepper to taste


Clean and cut Brussels sprouts in 1/2. Line a cookie sheet with tin foil. Add Brussels sprouts and toss in all other ingredients. Cook at 425 degrees until they are caramel and golden in colour.

Even people who don't love Brussels sprouts will love them!

    Bake at 400 degrees for 30 mins or 425 for 20 minutes shaking the pan every once in a while. They should be golden brown and crispy in spots.

    This was such a huge hit on Thanksgiving that not everyone got to try them. Even the brussel sprout naysayers loved them. I added more vinegar part way through the cooking process and cooked them about a total of 30 minutes. I also added extra garlic, because you can never have too much garlic :).
