Roasted Brussels Sprouts Salad:

Mix them together with about 4 cups of baby spinach (or kale). Pour over some balsamic vinaigrette.
Add some cheese (goat's cheese would be awesome).

What if you only have frozen Brussels Sprouts? That's what my daughter-in-law, Sylvie, also wondered. And, this is the recipe she created, using balsamic vinegar and maple syrup! And, no oil!!! And, they sure look and taste amazing!
