Just made this, and it’s SO good! The Ras el Hanout pairs nicely with the Brussels sprouts and the tahini dressing, along with the touch of sweetness from the dried cranberries (substituted as suggested, since pomegranates are currently out of season).
This is a terrific recipe because the Ras el Hanout flavor is incredibly interesting and well balanced, between savory and sweet. If you haven’t tried it yet, you really should!
Because I made a bigger batch, I decided to roast the Brussels sprouts in the oven instead of using my medium capacity air fryer. So I went ahead and roasted the kale as well, and roasted some halloumi slices with chickpeas on another sheet pan. Also made a batch of quinoa in the rice cooker to add to this delicious roasted salad. This is a 10/10 and I will definitely make this one again and again, with or without the substitutions/changes I made today!
