Notes
Brussels sprouts: The size of the brussels sprouts should be uniform. Halve the smaller sprouts and quarter the large ones.
Salting: Sprinkle a large pinch of black pepper and salt before popping the tray into the oven. This gives a BIG BOOST to the flavors of both brussels sprouts and carrots.
Cooking time: Roasting time depends entirely on how small you chopped the veggies and how fresh they are.
