Easy Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts

From About.com, by Jolinda Hackett

Ann: Just before Christmas brussels sprouts were calling to me from the produce section and I decided to explore unchartered waters: take an obscure vegetable (obscure to my family) to our big Christmas dinner party. I reviewed many possible recipes before finally settling on this one and what do you know...they were a hot topic of conversation and disappeared from my serving bowl.  Mission accomplished!

A quick and easy vegetable side dish recipe for brussels sprouts roasted with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. This easy brussels sprouts recipe is vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free.

Ingredients:

  • 2- 3 cups brussels sprouts, sliced in half
  • dash salt and pepper, to taste
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp olive oil

Preparation:

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Whisk together the vinegar, salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Slowly incorporate the olive oil until a dressing is formed.
Place the brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle the oil and vinegar over the sprouts and gently toss to coat.
Bake for 25 minutes, turning once. Sprouts are done when they are lightly browned.
