If you enjoy roasted vegetables, then you will these roasted and charred cheesy Brussel sprouts.

My favorite way to enjoy most veggies is through roasting which amplifies their flavor. Charring also enhances and enriches the flavor despite the slightly dark cooked, colored leaves, it does not taste burnt.

So first I seasoned the brussel sprouts with poppyseed marinade. Allow it to refrigerate for a hour. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper and other spices.

Of course, you can add any additional spices of your choice. Then just leave it up to the high heat of the oven to do its job. However, be sure to monitor the brussels periodically especially with it roasting at such a high temperature despite its texture and being a thick vegetable.
