Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound brussels sprouts
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1 pinch salt to taste
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉ and add a large sheet pan to the oven so it heats up.
  • Start by washing your brussels sprouts and drying them with a clean kitchen towel.
  • Cut the bottom stems off of each brussels. This helps avoid a bitter taste!

    Add the trimmed brussels sprouts to a large bowl.
  • Pour in the olive oil, salt, and cayenne pepper. Toss the brussels until they are completely covered.
