Notes
🥕If you can't find purple Brussels sprouts, that's ok! You can prepare this recipe using any variety of Brussels sprouts. It will be delicious!🥕You can use red or white balsamic vinegar. I prefer white because it doesn't alter the color of the Brussels sprouts. I used a peach-infused white balsamic I had on hand.🥕You can substitute agave nectar or vegan honey for maple syrup if necessary.
