Roasted Brussel Sprouts

Brussel sprouts are one of my favorite vegetables. They tend to get hated on for a couple of reasons. One, people overcook them and the sprouts become mushy; and two, people buy frozen sprouts and not fresh. Fresh sprouts make all the difference. When choosing brussel sprouts, you want to purchase the smallest ones possible. They are the most tender. If large ones are your only option, I recommend slicing them in half so they’ll cook properly.
