- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- 5 thyme fresh sprigs

Notes
- Use small fresh Brussels sprouts as these are typically sweeter
- After washing the Brussels sprouts, dry them thoroughly with a paper towel. This will prevent sogginess
- Discard any outer leaves that may be discoloured or wilted
- Use a large pan and spread out the vegetables, so they roast evenly instead of overcrowding them. This too will prevent soggy veggies
- Give them a flip halfway through so you get a nice gold coating all over
- Feel free to swap out the thyme for other herbs and spices
