1 lb. Brussels sprouts, halved
2 tablespoons avocado oil
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce (or use a gluten-free alternative and add salt as needed)
0.5 tablespoon honey*
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
½ teaspoon crushed red peppers
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Place the Brussels sprouts in the pan. Toss with the oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic and crushed red peppers, using a large spoon or your hands.
Arrange the seasoned Brussels sprouts, cut side down, in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Roast until browned and caramelized, about 30 minutes. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve.

*If you don't mind a few more carbs, this dish is even better with a full tablespoon of honey (15 grams carbs, 4 grams fiber per serving).
