Fancy Veggies aka Brussel Sprouts

I'm becoming addicted. In my quest to eat better I'm trying to introduce new veggies into my life and now I'm wondering where they've been this whole time. I think they are pretty, also. Here's how I make 'em:
Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Cut off brown base of sprout and then cut in half or quarters depending on size.
Put in bowl and toss with a small amount of olive oil, balsamic vinegar and honey.
Add salt and pepper and toss to cover. You don't need a lot of liquid or they'll just end up mushy.
Dump onto a cookie sheet. I line mine with foil. I hate doing dishes.
Cook for 20-30 minutes with a toss during halftime.

When they come out I like to squirt 'em with lemon juice and add some fresh parm.
Take a beano and inhale your fancy veggies.
Done.
