What is the best way to cook Brussel Sprouts?
Roasted. All. The. Way. I don’t eat them any other way. In fact, if you hate Brussels sprouts I would guess that you may have not tried Roasted Brussel Sprouts.
Pan fried in a scorching hot skillet is a good way to cook them up if you aren’t into oven roasted brussel sprouts.
Steamed or boiled sprouts are just awful. Mushy, soft, blahhhh.
What ingredients do you need for this Brussel Sprout Salad:
- 1 LB. Brussels Sprouts
