Cranberry Orange Roasted Brussels Sprouts-a great side dish to any holiday meal. 

Most people have strong opinions about brussels sprouts. They either love them or hate them. I am a lover. Brussels sprouts are one of my favorite vegetables. I love them roasted, in salads, and in pasta. I am currently loving Cranberry Orange Roasted Brussels Sprouts. They are so good and so easy to prepare, which makes them the perfect recipe for your Thanksgiving menu.

If brussels sprouts were already on your Thanksgiving menu, good for you! You may want to switch things up a bit by making Cranberry Orange Roasted Brussels Sprouts. I promise they will be a hit! And if brussels sprouts weren’t on your menu, there is still time to add them! This recipe is easy peasy and you only need a few ingredients!

I cut the stems off of the sprouts and cut them in half. I toss them in a simple orange dressing made with fresh orange juice, orange zest, olive oil, and a little honey. Add some salt and pepper and roast away! I love when the brussels sprouts get a little burnt. The crispy pieces are my favorite:)

When the sprouts come out of the oven I add dried cranberries to the mix! They add a nice pop of color and a kick of sweetness! Brussels sprouts have never looked so good…or tasted so good! I love the refreshing orange flavor with the sweet cranberries.

If you are looking for one last side dish to make for your Thanksgiving feast, make Cranberry Orange Roasted Brussels Sprouts. I think the brussels sprouts haters will even try them…and I bet they will turn into lovers. And if your menu is set and you don’t have room for one more recipe, save this recipe for Christmas. These sprouts are festive and would be a great addition to any holiday meal!
