This roasted brussels sprouts salad is perfect for Thanksgiving night or Christmas dinner.
Don’t you just love Brussels sprouts? I’m madly in love with them, I like them raw, steamed, roasted… but probably this is my favorite recipe of all. I just love how the sweet and spicy vinaigrette pairs perfectly well with the slight bitterness of the Brussels sprouts.
This recipe is super easy to prepare, and I roast the Brussels sprouts over the stove in an iron cast pan. That is the best way I have found to control the roasting of the Brussels sprouts. I like them almost burnt! You’ll see when you try them, and a delicious almost sweet flavor comes out as they roast. My kids love them too. This recipe can easily be transformed into a complete lunch or dinner if you mix it with quinoa or rice. You could even add some lentils to it and it will be still amazing!
