Balsamic roasted cauliflower and brussels sprouts with garlic and thyme. A simple and healthy side dish which is free of gluten and grains.

Roasted Cauliflower & Brussel Sprouts | Gluten & grain free side. Vegan/paleo friendlyNovember is finally here and with it has come a deluge of recipe ideas for our Thanksgiving meal. We typically have a variety of vegetable dishes, some green and some starchy. I wanted to spice up our menu a bit this year, steering away from our typical dish of sautéed green beens and bring a colorful and tasty dish to the table. 

I saw this head of purple cauliflower at Whole Foods, which looked like regular cauliflower that had been bathed in lavender dye, and knew I had to make something with it. The color was just too pretty to pass up.

I flavored them both with garlic, fresh thyme, and balsamic vinegar—such delicious additions to roasted veggies.

Description

Balsamic roasted cauliflower and brussels sprouts with garlic and thyme. A simple and healthy side dish which is free of gluten and grains.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets (I used purple cauliflower found at Whole Foods)
  • 1 pound brussels sprouts, larger pieces sliced in half
  • 6 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
  • 6 sprigs thyme
  • salt and pepper
  • 2–3 tablespoons melted coconut oil or avocado oil
  • 1–2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F. Place cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and garlic onto a large baking sheet. Remove thyme leaves from their stems and sprinkle over the vegetables. Drizzle with oil and toss mixture together to evenly coat and sprinkle with plenty of salt and pepper.
  2. Place pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25-35 minutes. Remove pan after about 15-20 minutes and toss vegetables with balsamic vinegar. Return to the oven to finish baking.
  3. May need more or less time, depending on the size of your vegetables. Keep a close eye after 20-25 minutes minutes to prevent burning.
