- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned, flipping halfway through.
- While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the honey glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard.

- Pour the honey glaze over the Brussels sprouts and toss to coat evenly.
- Serve immediately.
