Brussels Sprouts With Pecans & Honey image

From TOH magazine. Love Brussels sprouts and this is a way of making them even more special. Can substitute unsweetened apple juice for the wine if you prefer. These have a sweet taste to them so if you arn't a fan of that, probably not for you. But my family loved it
