- 2 lbs Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 1 tsp salt use sea salt or Real salt
- 1/2 cup walnuts soaked and dehydrated, or toasted
- 1/4 dried cranberries I like the juice sweetened variety

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Wash 2 pounds of Brussels sprouts, trim the ends, and cut each sprout in half. Pour onto a large sheet pan, and toss with olive oil and salt. Roast for 30 minutes, turning halfway through.
While they are cooking, roughly chop walnuts.
When the Brussels sprouts are finished cooking (fork tender but not mushy), pour them into a bowl and toss with balsamic vinegar. Stir in dried cranberries and walnuts, reserving some walnuts for garnish. Serve in a large bowl or on a tray.
