ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS

Not many people like Brussel Sprouts.  I do.  I try different recipes.  This one is extremely easy to make.  Makes a great side dish to any kind of poultry or fish.


1 kg. (2 pounds) Brussel sprouts
2 cloves garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup crushed salted walnuts
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
  • Preheat oven to 400
  • Clean brussel sprouts by removing the outside layers and cutting off a bit of the base.   Then wash and cut them in half
  • Mix together olive oil, garlic and crushed walnuts, salt and pepper (and the optional balsamic vinegar)
  • Mix with Brussel sprouts
  • Line the pan with cooking paper and pour Brussel sprouts onto the cooking paper.  Turn them all over the cut side down
  • Cook for 23-30 minutes until soft and golden brown
  • Serve warm and enjoy!
