roasted brussels sprouts

If there is one axiom in my life, it is this:  every vegetable is better when oven-roasted. 

These roasted brussels sprouts are fabulous.  Yum.

I eyeball everything, but generally:

a pound or two of brussels sprouts

Mix in a bowl with some olive oil to lightly coat, some sea salt, some freshly ground black pepper.

Roast at 400 degrees for about 35 minutes.  You can also do at 350 degrees for longer if you already have something in the oven.  You want to brown the outside and then the inside is tender.

You can get all fancy and use balsamic vinegar, cranberries, and all sorts of other things.  But, these very simple sprouts are all I need to be very, very happy.
