I finally did it! I broke down and bought Brussels Sprouts yesterday. I love cooking and reading about cooking and watching cooking shows. Every now and again they will roast brussels sprouts. It actually looks good. I love other green vegetables, however, DETESTED brussels sprouts as a kid. I never would eat them, my sister loved them and I knew if I sat it out long enough, my mom would just give them to my sister to eat!
So if you don't know what roasting a cruciferous vegetable is, it is where you drizzle olive oil and season with black pepper and salt and cook in an oven at around 375 or 400 degrees for about 15 to 30 minutes. I do this with Califlower, broccoli, asparagus and now Brussel Sprouts. I sometimes add a little garlic powder as well. My husband now eats all the vegetables I can get in him and they are delicious. I also steam vegetables as well. Not as satisfying though! Now I can honestly say I will eat Brussels sprouts again. I think i need to roast them longer and cut them in two if they are bigger in size but I feel very happy I have added another vegetable to our menus.
