Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

At some point recently I could feel myself becoming one of those vegetarians who doesn’t actually eat enough vegetables. Its not that I don’t like them—I love them. I’ll order them off of a menu any chance I get. But more often than not I cook for myself, and by cook I mean make oatmeal, open a yogurt container, scramble eggs or microwave a potato.

That’s definitely a habit I need to change. I never regret buying and cooking vegetables when I do, especially not these sprouts. Anything is delicious with some good olive oil and vinegar. I thought I was making a lot at the time but this hardly lasted me two meals.

If you want to make this fancy, you can add some other roasting vegetables into the mix with the brussels sprouts. These would especially be good with some julienned onions and diced potatoes(the kind not made in a microwave).

    I have a new-found love for brussel sprouts… it took a lot of trial and error but I’ve finally found a good way to roast them perfectly so even my husband will eat them. This looks delicious, will try the balsamic next time for sure! Great photos 🙂

    I love roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic dressing, I also love to add some blue cheese to the balsamic and let it get melty/creamy.
