  1. This looks delicious, I’m going to try and use frozen instead of fresh, theres not a good selection at our local market.

  2. Add a lot of chopped (chunky) fresh garlic. It cooks to crispy and is delicious with the brussel sprouts!

  3. I have decided this is the only way to eat Brussels spouts from now on. I loved them cooked this way.

  4. I’m having trouble finding fresh brussels sprouts. Can I use frozen?

    I am going to try this tonight, but I am adding a little garlic. Look delish………

  6. I chop up 2 dried dates with the sprouts… really good if you like sweet/salty together.  Still keeps the points low.

    • LOVE this idea!!! I’ll definitely try that next time. Thanks for sharing!

  7. We love this recipe and vary it with a little sprinkle of Parmesan cheese
