Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Cumin and Chilies

Yum

 It's Thanksgiving week so I'm going to give you a few more ideas to complete your meal.  This is a wonderful Roasted Brussels Sprouts dish that has some spice from the chiles and some great flavor from the cumin.    

I decided to top off the dish with some jewel like pomegranate seeds to really make the dish pop and look extra festive.  This dish is also perfect for the holiday season with all the green and red going on in it.

It's a really easy dish to pull together, but does take a few minutes to prep since the first step requires that you take the time to roast the Brussels Sprouts.  The second step is to simply saute the sprouts with the onions, chilies and cumin to complete the dish.

So if you're looking for a festive and different way to serve Brussels Sprouts this year, think about this fun dish. It's sure to make anyone's table sparkle.
