Happy Friday all! We have finally conquered another busy week of work, play and endless To Do Lists. It is now time to get ready for the weekend, to slow down, relax a little, and plan to do only one project and complete it over the weekend. I have my project planned and ready to conquer.
I want to share a recipe I worked on this week perfecting to create an end of summer, beautiful and delicious recipe that uses Brussel Sprouts.
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. It has a wonderful earthy flavor with just a pinch of zing to create that wow, this is good feeling.
Enjoy!

1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
2 Sprigs Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 Red Onion (just a few slices)
1 Clove Garlic (just a large pinch)
