ROASTING VEGETABLES

Roasting vegetables intensifies their flavors, and in this case the sauce creates a crispy brown profile I have not tasted in any other Brussels spouts recipe. These babies are crispy and flavor packed. I have printed  my take of the original recipe, however, next time I will start with half of the salt, then add additional to taste.

TOPPINGS

I like the salty kick of finely grated Parmesan cheese and creamy crunch from the Pine Nuts. So good you will want to sample it right out of the baking dish, like I did. I would serve these alongside simple roasted chicken or plain roasted meats.

Who does not love granola? I am a granola nut and have a selection to choose from but  LA-Style Granola recipe still reigns supreme! What makes this recipe different is that it’s sweet & salty a great combination. Maple syrup and spices complete the granola.
