your brussels sprouts? I intend to cook my 1-week old brussels sprouts. I have forgotten them in the fridge. I bought them because I wanted to eat them with potatoes but now I am thinking of another way of cooking them instead of steaming them and adding a white creamy sauce. It sounds like a boring recipe for me. How do you cook yours? Do you like brussels sprouts? I will have to search online the many ways to cook them. Maybe roasted in the oven with potatoes and other veggies sprinkled with spices and olive oil. Any idea? We´ll see. I still have time to cook until then. Anyway, it´s Friday again. Almost at the end of October. Enjoy your Friday everyone. Thanks for reading.

Love them. I always cook mine in the oven halved or shredded with olive oil and seasonings. Sometimes I cook them with bacon. I drizzle them with honey and sprinkle parmesan cheese.

My husband does not like Brussels sprouts, I cannot digest them, so I have no suggestions, sorry.

@thelme55 I had them a few times when mom cooked them but they stayed on my stomach for days every time.

I cook mine in the instant pot I have and they take only 2 minutes from frozen. I do love those ones Thelma. Enjoy them.

I'm not a huge fan of brussel sprouts but I do eat them. When we have them, I lightly steam them and then toss them in a knob of butter or a drizzle of olive oil, season them with a little black pepper and salt. Sometimes I'll even drizzle a bit of honey on them. I hope you enjoyed them. Happy Friday and have a lovely weekend

I love brussel sprouts and make them several ways. I sometimes cook them with spaghetti sauce and cheese on top and I like to cook them with a little brown sugar and bacon. They are good with just butter and salt and pepper too.

I like Brussels sprouts but eat them rarely. I boil them in water with some salt.

We eat them rarely, too. Boiling in water with salt was what my mother-in-law told me how to do it. We donßt have this veggie in the Philippines. Thank you @MALUSE.

Roasted sounds good. You can also cut them in half and fry them in a pan until golden brown.

I usually made it like salad. I would steam it with other veggies like green bean, spinach and then give it peanut sauce with galanga spice :-)
