Oven Roasted Brussel Sprouts

The flavor of brussel sprouts is similar to cabbage but more pronounced. One of the ways we enjoy them is by roasting in the oven until they turn crisp brown. It takes about 20 minutes to oven roast them and I use the basic seasoning of salt and pepper. Other flavorings like cheese can be added. 

Ingredients:
1 pound brussel sprouts
2 tbsp. oil
Salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions:
* Preheat oven to 400 deg F. Trim the ends of each brussel sprout, remove the outer layer if needed and slice lengthwise. 
* Add them to a bowl and drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Gently combine to coat uniformly.

* Arrange the brussel sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer, with the cut sides down. Don't overcrowd the pan. (Line the sheet with aluminium foil for easy clean up, if preferred.)

* Bake until they are crispy on the outside and tender inside, flipping them halfway through. Mine were done in about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
