2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
1 tbsp balsamic glaze or honey (optional, for serving)

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.
3. Place them in a large bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using.

For extra crispiness, make sure the Brussels sprouts are dry before roasting.
Add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese right after roasting for a savory finish.
Try tossing with cooked bacon bits or a squeeze of lemon juice for flavor variation.
