Brussels sprouts are something I hated as a child, and into adulthood I assumed I would always hate them. But then I tried them after someone roasted them, and my life was changed. That’s a little dramatic, but it did make me realize that I love brussels sprouts—if they are prepared correctly! These are a winter vegetable and tend to be cheaper as the weather gets colder, so this is a great time to make this as a side dish. The easiest way to eat these is to roast them in the oven. My easy roasted brussels sprouts only have a few ingredients, and they are perfect to take to holiday gatherings!

Easy Roasted Brussels Sprouts Recipe

I got my brussels sprouts at Costco, where they were about $5/bag.

I was making these for easy lunches for a week, so I made 4 lbs at once!

Then place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and spread them out. Some people like to make sure they are all facing the same way but that felt like a lot of work, so I just spread them out and flipped them halfway through.

Cook at 425 degrees for about 25 minutes. You can also turn the broiler on at the end to get them a little crispy. As I said before, I flipped mine halfway through.
