Frozen with butter sauce in microwave

How cute, and momma still let you play on the computer this morning.

We eat brussels sprouts every week, usually roasted. Those frozen in the bags I smell people heating up in the microwave at work are an abomination

I love brussels sprouts roasted in the oven with a little olive oil, salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar.

I grow them every fall and when I harvest the stalks I use the larger ones for roasting and the smaller ones I pickle in a bread & butter type brine.

I roast mine with olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, some sweet basil, oregano and when almost done, I'll add some freshly fried homemade bacon bits and parmesan cheese to finish them off.

Definitely the key to really good sprouts

I am unable to do good brussel sprouts at home despite multiple attempts.

Like Hattricks said in the post above you, throw them in the oven with olive oil, salt, and pepper. 400 degrees at about 15-20min. Hard to mess that up.

Pan frying them in bacon grease is harder to do properly, but it’s obviously the game changer.

I prefer to avoid them if I can. I was always thrown off by fact they smell like farts when cooking on a stove.

This is the only way I can eat them.
