Trim ends of Brussels sprouts and remove yellow leaves. Slice all Brussels sprouts in half.

In a medium bowl, combine halved Brussels sprouts, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt (to taste), and toss to combine.

Place Brussels sprouts onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, cut side down, and roast in the oven at 375 F for about 20-25 minutes.

During the last 5-10 minutes of roasting, turn them over for even browning.

Boil the beets on medium heat for about 30 to 40 minutes until soft.

Toast the pecans for about 5 to 10 minutes until they get darker in color.

In a large bowl, toss together roasted Brussels sprouts, roasted butternut squash, toasted pecans, and dried cranberries.

Add diced cooked beets last, otherwise, they will color the salad dark red.
