Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash with Dried Cranberries
Do you want to know a secret to get your kids to eat almost any vegetable? Drizzle some balsamic glaze on the veggies right before you serve them! This easy Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash with Dried Cranberries recipe nearly didn’t make it to the table for dinner because I kept nibbling the veggies while I finished making the rest of the meal. They were SO GOOD!

Delicious! I would finish the whole bowl all by myself!
Good looking side dish Pam. We’ve made sprouts with sweet potatoes but haven’t tried squash.
Very nice idea adding cranberries to the brussels sprouts. Adds some sweetness.I agree roasted vegetables taste so much better.
I will try that trick on Dave! I love Brussels sprouts 🙂
maybe my problem with brussels sprouts has been trying to eat them by themselves. maybe they need some earthy squash and/or sweet cranberries in the mix. guess i won’t give up on them just yet. 🙂
This was delicious and the colors were beautiful! Thanks for the recipe!
