Step-by-Step Instructions for Honey Balsamic Brussels Sprouts
  1. Prepare Brussels Sprouts: Wash the Brussels sprouts, trim the ends, and halve or quarter them for even cooking. Pat them dry to remove excess moisture.

  4. Combine and Serve: Transfer roasted Brussels sprouts to a serving bowl, drizzle with glaze, and sprinkle with nuts and parsley. Serve immediately.
