I am always on the look out for recipes that will help me encourage my family to eat more veggies.  And, over the years I’ve found that I can roast pretty much anything and they will love it!  Especially if I roast it with garlic!  I mean, what’s not to love?!  Some of my favorite roasted vegetable recipes are Tuscan Roasted Asparagus, Parmesan Roasted Green Beans and Roasted Provencal Vegetables.  When, I found this recipe for roasted Brussels Sprouts on Pinterest, I thought I’d give it a whirl.

1 lb fresh Brussels sprouts, stems removed and quartered
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/4 c. water

Move oven rack to the top position and preheat to 425 degrees.  In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts, minced garlic, olive oil, water, salt and pepper. Add more salt and pepper to taste, as needed.

Spread sprouts on a shallow baking sheet or oven-proof skillet, and roast until tender and Brussels sprouts begin to turn crispy and caramelized, about 25-35 minutes. During the cooking time, check your sprouts and adjust time as needed.

Remove from oven and toss Brussels sprouts in the pan, scraping up the good crispy bits.

These were so good!  Even my 5 year old ate them (score 1 for mama!).  There’s nothing I would change about this recipe.  It’s perfect just the way it is! What’s your favorite way to eat Brussels Spouts?
