Are you a fan of brussels sprouts?
Have you tried roasting them yet?
If you haven’t tried a roasted brussels sprouts dish yet I highly recommend you try this recipe.
I’ve added chopped apples, chopped bacon and a generous pour of balsamic to these sprouts. Sounds good, right?
If you haven’t cooked Brussels sprouts before I recommend steaming them or a short cook in boiling water. It cuts back on the roasting time and keeps the sprouts tender and not dried out.
I posted the recipe for these brussels sprouts on my instagram page back in October and in time for Canadian Thanksgiving but I did not get the recipe posted here up on my blog.
Im posting it now just in time for American Thanksgiving.
Let me know if you make this recipe. I really would love to know your thoughts.
