Ingredients

    2 cups fresh brussel sprouts, halved with the outer leaf removed on each
    drizzle of olive oil

    salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Place halved brussel sprouts on baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and balsalmic vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste. Roast in oven at 425 degrees for 20 minutes. The vinegar makes them caramelize and they are almost like brussel sprout fries. Very tasty.

    I am so not a brussel sprout person, but this recipe is a great foundation for them! I'll usually cut the sprouts in half, and toss them with the balsamic, olive oil, pepper & garlic salt in a bowl before placing on the sheet/in oven. I also roast for ~35-40 min, turning once. Delicious! - 9/10/10

    For those who are finding the sprouts underdone inside: try microwaving them for a minute BEFORE you do the rest of the recipe. I find that this helps. - 1/9/10

    First time I've ever eaten brussel sprouts. I find that oven-roasted veggies are the way to go! -- I did add 2 onions & some carrots & yams. I lowered the temp & cooked longer; covered w/ foil. - 12/1/12

    I didn't know if I'd like brussel sprouts or not, but I loved them when cooked this way and went back for seconds. Carmelized and crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. I didn't include the balsamic vinegar this time, but plan to try it next time. - 1/25/13

    I have not tried adding balsamic. I always add chili powder. But I do love brussel sprout "fries"! - 5/3/09

    I loved these! I was out of olive oil, so I used Ken's Healthy Options Balsamic Vinagrette dressing instead (which contains olive oil.) I drizzled it all over, sprinkled sea salt and pepper, baked for 30 minutes and they turned out fabulous! I will never boil brussel sprouts again. - 1/14/12

    Five stars! What a terrific recipe. I actually didn't use oil but some no-fat substitute spray and also threw a few broccoli pieces into the mix. What a treat. Unlike others, I didn't have any problems with these being underdone. They were beautifully bakes and delicious. Thanks so much for sharing - 11/29/11

    I really find that I prefer buttery to vinegary...I probably drizzled too much vinegar over the sprouts. But I added almond slivers and put some lemon juice over them when they were done...and they were good. - 8/3/10

    My husband and I like brussel sprouts. I wanted to try fixing them a different way from the usual steaming. This recipe was quick and easy and the brussel sprouts tasted great. I will use this recipe again. - 6/20/10

    This is my favorite way to make brussel sprouts! I try to do it regularly. Sometimes I leave them whole and roast them longer, and I stir them around every 10 minutes or so. - 6/17/10

    So good! When I turned the brussel sprouts over, some of the layers fell off in the pan. As a fan of crunchy, blackened things I loved that they charred and added something extra to the dish. - 4/13/10

    What a treat! Turned out perfect and easier than on the stove top. Someone above mentioned that theirs didn't cook through. I placed mine cut side down after mixing with the other ingredients and I even used large sprouts. - 10/26/09

    I hate to be one of the few who didn't enjoy her brussel sprouts. I have never tried brussel sprouts before and decided to give it a go. Unfortunately I really didn't enjoy them. I am sure it has nothing to do with the recipe...still I thank you for sending me on a taste adventure. - 10/24/09

    This recipe is fantastic!! Super easy and delish. If you make sure to get the small sprouts it works out well. I think you could trick brussel sprout haters with this one! - 1/13/09

    The carmelized taste is delicious. I've made this several times now. We like it with honey wisked into the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. If the centers aren't tender enough, microwave the sprouts a couple minutes after you take them out of the oven. - 12/26/08

    The brussell sprouts didn't cook all the way through so they were tough. But the outside did carmelize and I liked that. I may try this again, but microwaving them first to cook them before I bake. - 11/4/07

    I enjoyed this. Easy to make, and can easily change up with different vinegars or seasoning. Carmelizing was nice. - 8/20/07
