Roasted Potato Salad

Roasting enhances the flavor of vegetables by pulling out their natural sugars. If you're a little hesitant about having Brussels sprouts in this recipe, step out of your comfort zone. Roasting Brussels sprouts takes away their bitter flavor and makes them quite tasty. Enjoy this unique combination of vegetables as a salad served on top of lettuce or as a side dish. And, give yourself a pat on the back for eating Brussels sprouts.
