I had them for the first time today since childhood. Yum. Anyone else?

This is going to sound crazy, but I'm not sure I've ever had them before.  And I love most vegetables.

Green Giant makes them in a steamer thing with buttah sauce.

I think I might have tried them as a kid, but have successfully avoided them ever since. YUCK.

I love them with salt and pepper and alittle garlic powder rolled in butter and baked. Amazing!

They are one of those vegetables (like asparagus) that smell like farts but taste like heaven.

Do they make your pee smell funny too?

I don't think so. I've never noticed it anyway.

LOVE them!  If you ever try fresh brussel sprouts, drizzle them with a little EVOO and roast them in the oven/broiler.  Then saute some bacon and chopped yellow onion.  Mix that with the brussel spouts and walla!

Mmm, I love brussel sprouts! I loved them as a kid too, which was probably a little strange!

I've had them 4 times since being with Jason and hated every time he has made them. However, I recently made them because I know he likes them and I actually enjoyed them. I think because I didn't overcook them the way he did.

I will be roasting them next. Roasted vegetables are delicious!

Hmm, I have never tried fresh, but that sounds good and healthy.  I will have to keep this in mind.   I have only bought the Green Giant frozen steamer bags already mentioned.

 

Funny you say that, Jenny, because I only like them when they are nearly completely soft.  To most that would be overcooked, I think, but I didn't really like them when they are hard or still crunchy in any way.   Also, I cover mine completely with cheese.   Completely defeats the purpose of eating a healthy vegetable, but melted cheese on brussel sprouts just goes together so well that it isn't the same without cheese.

I hated them as a kid, but when I had them as a kid, they were generally overcooked and plain. Since then, I've had them a few times, prepared much better. I thought they were OK, but they're still one of the few vegetables I don't like much.

I recently tried them since they came with something I ordered for dinner. I thought they were alright but probably not something I'd buy to cook for myself.
