Introduction

A quick cooking dish. Make sure you don't over cook. That's what brings out the sulfur and makes this vegetable smell and taste bitter. A quick cooking dish. Make sure you don't over cook. That's what brings out the sulfur and makes this vegetable smell and taste bitter.

    Thanks! One thing I forgot to include (which I will now) is that you have to cut the sprouts in half, notch out the core and slice them very thin, like cabbage. This way they can cook quickly!!!

    I have made a couple different times. I also do one where I don't add butter, but I do a little dijon mustard - yummy! - 5/10/12

    Very good. We had some leftover cooked pork tenderloin and mixed it in with it. I could also see using it as a base for a stir-fry with other veg. Yum - 9/18/10

    Wonderful but I want to try it without as much oil/butter. My doctor has restricted me to 800 cal/day so I cut where I can. My Calphalon pans help. - 3/13/09

    We adore brussels sprouts and I was thinking I needed to find a new way to prepare them while standing in front of them at the grocery store this very afternoon! Sounds delish!!! Thanks for sharing. - 3/11/09
