Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Brussels sprouts are one of those vegetables I have avoided my entire adult life thus far. I recall having them as a kid only once – then kicked and screamed politely refused them ever since.

Recently, a friend asked if I had any Brussels sprouts recipes, or if I would create one, as she had recently taken a liking to them. I still had not found my liking, but I said sure, I’d give it a shot!

In talking with other food friends and lovers of all veggies, I kept hearing roast them. I figured this was good advice to follow, since I love just about any vegetable that has been roasted.

I thought up a simple recipe with some of my favorite flavors. A quick fifteen minutes in the oven is all these need, with a toss every five minutes.

*swoon*

You know what? I now love Brussels sprouts.

I know – I kick myself for all I have been missing. These will definitely be in regular rotation at dinnertime around here. Simple and short ingredient list, quick cook time, and amazing vibrant flavors.

Here you go, Michelle – these Brussels are for you! Sorry it took me a bit…
