Roasted Brussels SproutsThis is my new favorite way to prepare Brussels sprouts and I can’t wait to make them again and again.  Tender crisp on the inside with a sweet, spicy crust these are perfect for snacking.  Although this recipe says 6 servings they’re so addictive you may need to make more.  We ate about half of them before they were even done cooking.

      Hi Dina! I only just discovered I love Brussels sprouts a few years ago and have gone sprout crazy since then. This recipe might be my favorite, though. Hope you can give it a try!
