Roasted Apples and Brussel Sprouts

Brussel sprouts are high are high in fiber, vitamin C, folate, potassium, and calcium and can be very tasty if roasted. As a child my mom would boil them and cover them with butter and vinegar. High in saturated fat and low in tastiness. Here is a healthy and tasty recipe. This makes a wonderful fall side dish. Or serve it on Thanksgiving. Makes 4 servings
