Roasted Brussels Sprouts With Pine Nuts

When I saw this recipe on foodtv, I thought I would give brussels sprouts a try. I LOVED it. I get to craving these & will make a batch just for myself. The cooking time may sound too long, but I have never had either the brussels sprouts or pine nuts burn. I do like the suggestion to keep your pine nuts in the freezer - that should help to keep them from burning.
