Roasted Blueberry Balsamic Brussel Sprouts

 Roasted Blueberry Balsamic Brussel Sprouts are a delicious side dish. The sweetness of the blueberry balsamic vinegar will make this recipe a hit for young and old alike. 

Our local Whole Foods had a special this week on brussel sprouts. I thought it would be fun to buy the sprouts on their original stem, sometimes we forget how beautiful our food can be when we just open a bag. 

To prepare them we just snapped off each small head and then trimmed the base with a small knife, removing the outside leaves. We then threw them in our salad spinner, gave the a quick wash and finished up preparing them by cutting them in half for the recipe.
