Simple yet delicate flavor. I like my roasted vegetables soft in the middle and crispy outside. No salt. Every chef on TV wants to salt everything for flavor, I say no. Not so much. This is a recipe I want to try. I'll let you know if I like it. By the way, has anyone heard of Bacon Wrapped Brussel Sprouts? You cut the Brussel sprout in half, the bacon in half, wrap, bake at 350 for 45 min and use toothpicks when needed. The next day, cold, tastes like candy. Depending on the bacon you use.
