Yields
4-6 servings
Ingredients
2 lbs. cleaned Brussels sprouts, cut in half
Olive oil or avocado oil
salt to taste
2 Tbl. balsamic reduction
1 cup Medjool dates, pitted and chopped
2 tsp. lemon juice (optional)
1/2 cup shaved toasted almonds (optional)
2 Tbl. honey
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with enough olive oil to lightly coat and spread into a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, or until sprouts are a bit crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.
Once cooked, let the sprouts cool for 5-10 minutes. While still warm, add balsamic reduction, salt, dates, lemon juice (if using), almonds (if using) and honey. Mix until well combined.
Serve warm.
