Notes

This dish pairs beautifully with a side of leafy greens, such as spinach or arugula. For added protein, consider serving with grilled chicken or a hard-boiled egg. Ensure Brussels sprouts are cut evenly for even roasting. Adjust the dressing’s thickness with more or less water. Make ahead to save time.
