Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Vinegar





This is such a simple yet powerful side dish that I love.  The balsamic vinegar adds a nice zing to the roasted brussels sprouts.  It goes great with pork or beef, but really it's so delicious that I would eat it with just about anything!















Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 25 mins
Makes: varies

INGREDIENTS:
Brussels sprouts
Olive Oil
Balsamic vinegar
Salt & Pepper

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to roast at 375°F. Peel the outer, beat-up layers of the brussels sprouts off.  Trim the end, then cut brussels sprouts in half.

Toss in a bowl with enough olive oil to coat evenly, then add balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. Lightly oil a sheet pan, then spread out brussels sprouts, cut side down. Roast in oven for 15 min., flip the sprouts to cut side up, then roast for about 10 minutes more or until gently browned.
