Your new favorite way to eat Brussels sprouts!

Roasted Brussels sprouts with a honey garlic balsamic sauce are here for all of those who ever doubted these delicious cruciferous vegetables. These are absolute perfection!

I have challenged most of my clients this week that with the fresh new year, we need to think outside our “vegetable box” and try different vegetables that aren’t the same ones we eat every day. As a nutritionist, I know the importance of mixing up our nutrients and trying new foods! I am always finding ways to add more healthy vegetable side dishes into our dinners, and this brussels sprouts recipe is no exception.

Many people are still on the fence about how they feel about brussels sprouts. I think they still have this idea that grandma boiled these horrific smelling green balls and forced them to clear their plates. Ummmm, not quite.

We’ve come along way in the vegetable cooking department! Honestly, roasted brussels sprouts can be a part of my life every single day and I would never complain. My goal this week was creating a super simple Brussels sprouts recipe that would knock the socks off of my clients!! So here it goes…….

How to make Honey Garlic Glazed Roasted Brussels Sprouts:

Let’s gather up our easy ingredients:

• Brussels Sprouts
• Avocado oil
• Garlic
• Sea salt
• Balsamic Vinegar
• Honey (or coconut sugar)

The directions:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F. Trim the stems off of the Brussels, and chop in half. For larger brussels, you may need to chop in quarters.
• In a small bowl, add the avocado oil and minced garlic. Evenly coat the Brussels with the oil/garlic. Spread out onto a baking sheet, flat side down.

• 

• 

• Transfer the pan to the oven and roast for 15 minutes. While the brussels are roasting whisk together the honey and balsamic vinegar.
• At the 15 minute mark, remove from oven. Toss the Brussels and spread the balsamic/honey mixture on top. Return back to the oven
• Roast for another 10 minutes, or until crispy and browned.

Tips and Tricks:

• I like to spread out the brussels on the perimeter of the baking sheet. This helps to give roast them better with air flow in the oven by leaving the center open (prevents more steaming and creates crispier brussels)
• When you chop the brussels, some of the outer leaves may fall off. Include them in the mixture! They turn out extra crispy and delicious.
• No need to use parchment paper, it allows the brussels to brown more on the bottoms!
