Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Pears





 This is another recipe from inmybowl.com. Great flavor for very little effort! 

serves 8

 2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
2 red bartlett pears, ripe, cored and cut into 1/2 inch thick wedges
6 shallots, quartered
1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
1 large spring fresh rosemary, destemmed and minced
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a large bowl, toss brussels sprouts, pears, shallots, walnuts, rosemary and olive oil.  Evenly distribute on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet and place in oven on middle rack.
Roast for 35-40 minutes (turning after 20 minutes),  or until Brussels are tender and well browned. Remove from oven and drizzle with maple syrup.  * I added some fresh cracked sea salt before serving
