roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic honey glaze.

omgoodness i made some delicious brussels sprouts last night. i love brussels. i know this is not the most common opinion, but if my three year-old will eat them, i think these are worth sharing. 

i wish i had taken a picture because they were pretty, too, but i'm an atrocious food photographer (which is depressing considering how much i love food), and i didn't want to post a picture that didn't do them justice. 

so, a recipe!

ingredients:
- 2 lbs brussels sprouts, washed and cut in half
- kosher salt
- 4-6 tbsp coconut oil
- 1-2 tbsp local honey
- 1-2 tbsp balsamic vinegar (i used this fig-infused vinegar we bought in florida and it was pretty legit)

preheat your oven to 400. throw your brussels in a bowl and salt them. in a separate small bowl whisk all the other ingredients together, then dump it all over your brussels. get your hands dirty and coat them all generously. add some more coconut oil or another small batch of the glaze if you think your veggies aren't coated liberally enough. you won't be sorry. 

lay those bad boys out levelly on a baking sheet. i like to use foil because i don't use cooking spray because i *may* be crazy. pop them in the oven for 18 minutes. toss them, then back in the oven for 8-12 more minutes, or to the desired magical golden brown-ness you seek. 

you're welcome.
