Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Apples, Cranberries, and Walnuts

Believe it or not I had never had Brussels sprouts in my life until my husband and I began cooking together.  I was really missing out.  Who can resist these cute little cabbage-like babies? 

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Apples, Cranberries, and Walnuts

Ingredients:
1 lb. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
1 Gala Apple, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
1 tbsp. local honey
2 pieces of bacon, crumbled
Salt and pepper
1 tbsp. olive oil

Directions:
Toss the trimmed Brussels sprouts, apples, salt, pepper, and olive oil together in a mixing bowl.  Pour onto a cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes, or until the outsides of the Brussels sprouts begin to brown.  Remove from the oven and return to the mixing bowl.  Combine with the cranberries, bacon crumbles, walnuts, and honey.  This recipe was delicious served as a side to steak.
