Smells Like Salad

I picked up some brussels sprouts the other day from a local farm. They were very small and some not much larger than a grape. The brussels sprouts were roasted in a little bit of olive oil at 375 degrees for about 8 minutes. This reduced that "sulphur-y" taste and smell that is common with boiled or steamed brussels. Then they were transferred to a prep bowl and tossed with the remaining ingredients. The heat from roasting the brussels sprouts gently softened the cranberries, too. Meyer lemon in place of Eureka/Lisbon lemon. Made for the FYC tag game.
