I am a huge fan of Brussels sprouts. I try to grow them in my raised vegetable beds every year.

The key to cooking Brussels sprouts is to not over do it. I believe that more people have been turned off this otherwise tasty vegetable because they have only experienced them at their worse – soggy and over cooked.

This recipe is always a success because it is so easy. Dinner guest will be delightfully surprised when they are reintroduced to this more delectable version of their childhood nemesis – the Brussels sprout!
