My brother Jeffrey inspired this recipe when he showed up with a variation of this dish one Thanksgiving when the family all got together in Sonoma. I tweaked it a bit, as usual.
Yummy side dish for the upcoming holiday meals.

1 and 1/2 lbs Brussels Sprouts, halved and sliced VERY thinly, placed in a large bowl, separating the confetti as much as possible with your fingers.

1 Pomegranate, seeds removed from white pith

Salt & Pepper
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees
