Brussels Sprouts & Broccoli with Maple Dijon Vinaigrette

I posted this recipe for roasted Brussels Sprouts & Broccoli with Maple Dijon Vinaigrette a couple years ago and decided to take some new pictures when I made it this time around.  This is such a delicious way to prepare Brussels sprouts, one of my favorites.  If you’re a brussels sprouts hater, you just might find out you like this recipe…afterall it has BACON… or not, if you’re vegan/vegetarian!

Brussels sprouts and broccoli florets are roasted in the oven with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper.  It’s that easy.  But what really sets this dish over the top is the fantastic maple dijon vinaigrette.

I thought bacon would be a nice addition to this dish.  I mean really, who doesn’t love bacon?  And let me tell you, it was great!  But, if you choose to eat a vegan/vegetarian diet, by all means leave off the bacon.  It’s still fantastic! You could use just brussels sprouts and no broccoli, or just broccoli and no sprouts. My mom likes to add sweet potatoes and dried cranberries. I’m thinking this is one of those whatever you like kind of vegetable dish, because I’ll say it again…it’s all about the vinaigrette!  I even used this vinaigrette on green beans the next night and loved it on them too!

I made these roasted Brussels Sprouts & Broccoli with Maple Dijon Vinaigrette dish for a Thanksgiving pot luck and it was gone in a snap.  I guess that means it was a hit. I hope you give it a try and enjoy it as much and I do!
