Whoever decided brussels sprouts are every human’s worst nightmare must have eaten something else because real brussels sprouts are good. I mean, come on… anything that looks like a wee tiny cabbage must be good, right? And did you know that they grow like this?

Anything that awesome must also be good. So why do people hate them so much? Because they eat the ones that have been boiled to death into a mushy glob of gross.

Do it like this:

1. Peel back the outer leaves

2. Cut off the stem

3. Cut sprouts in half and then score the core

4. Toss in salted boiling water for about 3 minutes

5. Rinse in cold water

6. Saute in a sauce pan with olive oil and garlic until they start to brown.

Saturday lunches are my favorite.

  1. Love cabbage and thought brussel sprouts are little fun bite size versions of it. In fact, I think they taste even better.

  2. YUM! Love them, too, especially with walnuts!

  3. Always disliked them until my wife bought them fresh, simply rinsed and steamed them – delicious. FRESH is the key!
