Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Please pass the Brussels sprouts. Yes, I really do mean Brussels sprouts.  If you have bad memories of overcooked, bitter, squishy Brussels sprouts then you should give them a second chance with this recipe.  The crunchy outside combined with the flavor of sea salt makes this a favorite side dish of mine in the fall.  The recipe is easy and flavorful.
