Red Wine-Roasted Brussel Sprouts

Oven Roasted Sprouts With Baby Carrots & Red Peppers

Red Wine-Roasted Brussel Sprouts: Sample recipe from Nava Atlas's Vegan Holiday Kitchen

The slightly sweet glaze gives brussels sprouts and their companion vegetables a rich flavor; carrots and red peppers give a beautiful taste and color contrast.

Total Prep & Cook Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients:

1 1/2 to 2 pounds brussel sprouts, stemmed and halved lengthwise
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into narrow strips, about 2 inches long
1 cup baby carrots, halved lengthwise
2 to 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/3 cup dry red wine
3 tablespoons agave nectar or maple syrup, or to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions:

For this recipe you'll need a large shallow glass or enamel roasting pan
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees
Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl
Transfer ingredients to a foil lined roasting pan
Roast for 30 minutes, stirring every few minutes, or until the vegetables are touched with brown spots here and there and nicely glazed
Transfer to a serving bowl and keep warm until needed, or serve at once

Cooking Tips:

I added 2 tsp of oil to the coating mix, and reduced the soy sauce by that amount, as I don't mind a little fat, but I do mind my sodium.

For less crunchy veggies cover the dish with a lid or foil for the first half of baking, and reduce the heat to 350 degrees. Then they'll steam in their own juices.
