So, you thought that I was just going to use that balsamic vinaigrette on salads eh? Though I will be using it on some salads the primary reason that I made was for these balsamic roasted brussels sprouts. After the success of the maple dijon roasted brussels sprouts it got me to thinking about other dressings that would work on brussels sprouts. One brussels sprouts dish that I always enjoy is roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar and toasted pine nuts and I knew that it was time for a new and improved version that uses a more flavourful balsamic vinaigrette rather that just the balsamic vinegar. These balsamic roasted brussels sprouts with toasted pine nuts are definitely a winner! The balsamic vinaigrette is definitely more tasty and has a more well rounded flavour than the simple balsamic vinegar.
Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Pine Nuts
ingredients
- 2 pounds brussels sprouts (trimmed and halved)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinaigrette
- 1/4 cup pine nuts slices (toasted)
- 1/4 cup parmigiano reggiano (grated, optional)
directions
- Toss the brussels sprouts in the oil along with the salt and pepper.
- Arrange the brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast in a preheated 400F/200C oven until they start to caramelize, flipping them once in between, about 30 minutes.
- Toss the brussels sprouts in the balsamic vinaigrette along with the pine nuts and garnish with the parmigiano reggiano.
This sounds so incredible! I've really become very fond of brussel sprouts. The pine nuts and the vinaigrette combo push them totally over the top!
Love those brussel sprouts!
I have always hated brussel sprouts Kevin, but I am feeling strangely intrigued by this recipe!
I roast Brussel Sprouts in balsamic all the time. I love them. The addition of the pine nuts is a great idea~
YUM! These look great! After the success of your Maple Roasted Dijon Brussels Sprouts I will certainly have to try these 🙂
I love brussel sprouts these days and appreciate you sharing another amazing way to prepare them! 🙂

My mom doesn't like brussels sprouts, so I didn't have to eat them growing up—seemingly lucky childhood. Maybe this recipe will be enough to get me to try brussels sprouts since I like all the flavoring agents…they're so popular for reduced carb diets, which I try to follow.
So flavorful! Brussel sprouts are just wonderful…
Cheers,

I like brussels sprouts but I like them better if they are in a recipe. This one looks good.
I love roasted brussel sprouts!! the toasted pine nuts are a great addition!
I like the idea of adding balsamic vinegar and pine nuts to brussels sprouts! You're a genius. 🙂
I think this sounds wonderful!
Since you're such a kimchi-lover, I thought I MUST share this. My favorite way of roasting brussels sprouts is also with balsamic, but I also add gochujang (Korean red pepper paste), and a shot of maple syrup. It's FANTASTIC! Almost a Korean BBQ flavor.
My hubby loves Brussels sprouts so I'm going to make these for him – love the pine nut addition!
Thanks for another recipe to be made and not just admired. It looks like what we would love to eat. I hope we will find out.
Love love love brussels sprouts! I'll definitely be adding this to my (growing) collection of brussels sprouts recipes…sounds delish! 🙂
Those looke gorgeous! I tend to use it on everything, too. I found some Apple Balsamic recently…. New toys!
Genius! Balsamic vinaigrette is such a great seasoning for roasted anything (but I do love brussels sprouts). I bet it would be great on broccoli or even winter squash!
i've never been a huge fan of brussel's sprout, until i've discovered how they taste roasted…YUM. i'm going to try youre version next time. i sometimes add some blue cheese, which would be very good with this dressing aswell!
I love roasted brussels sprouts. The are really a great side dish, and are always very affordable.
This looks so good, Kevin. I love brussels Sprouts. I'm glad you posted a veggie too-they are so underrated…
I too am not very fond of brussel sprouts, but this might convert me 🙂
Those look so good!

I must agree with Fenke's comment above: get some crumbled blue cheese on these.
Also, do you think they'd be any good or better served cold?
Greg Weiss: I imagine that they would be good served cold. Though, if I were to server them with the blue cheese, (and I will have to try that) I would prefer them to be warm so that the cheese starts to melts into them and gets even creamier.
This dish looks phenomenal! I often make Balsamic roasted Brussels sprouts… I love the addition of the pine nuts!
Delicious! Thank you for a great recipe.
