Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Sweet Dijon Mustard

By

Ingredients

  • What you need:
  • 20-30 fresh brussels sprouts
  • cooking spray
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • garlic powder, to taste
  • 1/4 cup dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons agave nectar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon or lime

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Chop off stems of the brussels sprouts and remove the outer leaves. Either halve or quarter them, depending on size. Spray the bottom of a baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Toss brussels sprouts in dish and sprinkle with seasonings. Spray a little more cooking spray on top of seasoned brussels. Roast in oven for about 25 minutes or so. I like mine a little burnt, but if you don't, check them after 20 minutes. They should still be crisp, not mushy.
3. While the brussels are roasting, make the mustard sauce. In a small bowl, mix mustard, agave, and lemon juice. When the brussels sprouts are roasted to your liking, take out of the oven and pour mustard sauce over them and stir.
