    StrangeLove's Notes: A new take on brussel sprouts. I wanted to make something sweet. Vanilla Bean Paste is one of my favorite ingredients. Cheaper and way easier than scraping a vanilla bean. I love sauces...

Serves 4-6

  1. Turn oven to 375. Cut all sprouts lengthwise in half and set aside. Heat small skillet and add walnuts, stirring occasionally to keep them from burning. Cook until browned and toasted, about 5-10 minutes. Set aside

  2. In a large bowl whisk together the salt, balsamic vinegar, vanilla bean paste and oilve oil. Add sprouts and walnuts, Toss thoroughly making sure all sprouts are well-coated. Lay the sprouts and walnuts out on a baking sheet and cook for about 30-45 minutes or until sprouts seem crisp and browned. They might looked burned but it is just the darkness of the balsamic.
