Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Pine Nuts

Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Pine Nuts


So, you thought that I was just going to use that balsamic vinaigrette on salads eh? Though I will be using it on some salads the primary reason that I made was for these balsamic roasted brussels sprouts. After the success of the maple dijon roasted brussels sprouts it got me to thinking about other dressings that would work on brussels sprouts. One brussels sprouts dish that I always enjoy is roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar and toasted pine nuts and I knew that it was time for a new and improved version that uses a more flavourful balsamic vinaigrette rather that just the balsamic vinegar. These balsamic roasted brussels sprouts with toasted pine nuts are definitely a winner! The balsamic vinaigrette is definitely more tasty and has a more well rounded flavour than the simple balsamic vinegar.
