OVEN ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS 
1 lb fresh Brussels sprouts
1 sliced carrot
1 lime
salt
pepper
handful of pine nuts
olive oil

Soak Brussels sprouts in warm water for about 10 minutes. While soaking, preheat oven to 350°F.

Cut lime in half and extract juice. Rinse Brussels sprouts and cut in half. Steam Brussels sprouts and carrots together for 3-5 minutes (do not let cook them all the way). You will know they are done steaming when they turn bright green.

In an oiled baking pan, transfer steamed vegetables, and add lime juice. Mix well. Next, you want to add just enough olive oil so that all the sprouts are well coated.

Add pine nuts, a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and bake for 15-17 minutes (longer if you prefer softer veggies).

Be sure to stir them every 5 minutes. If they seem dry, add a little more oil. Broil for 2-4 minutes or until they are nice and crispy.

Let cool and serve.

I just tried this recipe and was quite surprised has to how easy it was to prepare and how good it tasted. I really liked the lime juice that it called for on the Brussels sprouts. I will definitely use this recipe again.

Perfect recipe! Thank you!

Perfect side to my bone-in ham stuck with whole cloves and nothing but honey and ground mustard mixed and put on top.

Omit the pine nuts at your peril...

These Brussels sprouts were so good! I used sesame seeds instead of pine nuts only because I didn't want to make another trip to the grocery store. And I squeezed on fresh lemon juice because that's what I had on hand. These were simply awesome!
