    This blogger is really into brussel sprouts and has some good ideas. It appears she eats only vegan recipes tho.

    Saute them with garlic, ginger, lemon, and cooking oil. Then at the end, add toasted sesame oil, and the tiniest drop of maple syrup.

    I slice the sprouts and lots of onion on a mandolin. Toss it in a sauté pan with a little coconut oil and sea salt. If I'm feeling really wild, I let it cool a bit and wrap it in a rice paper wrap. Oh, and sometimes I add minced garlic too. Delish!

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

    1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

    Cut off the brown ends of the Brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. Mix them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Shake the pan from time to time to brown the sprouts evenly. Sprinkle with more kosher salt and serve immediately.

    Sometimes I like to add a little turkey bacon as well.

    And don't forget to give credit to Ina Garten for the recipe ;)

    I shred them (either with a knife or use the cheese grater) - and sautee in olive oil with garlic, salt pepper and pancetta/bacon. I then toss them through linguine or spaghetti with a splash of cream and top with parmesan cheese. LUSH! :)

    I'm from MS, so I cook them Paula Dean style. We take the seasoned iron skillet and throw in a couple pieces of thick cut bacon and fry till crispy. Then you remove the bacon and throw in the sprouts and fry them up in in bacon grease. When they are warm and toasty brown, put them on a serving platter and crumble the bacon over the top. Umm-umm! Make you want to slap yo mama :laugh:

    Roasted with minced garlic with salt, pepper and olive oil. Keep it simple. Brussel sprouts have so much delicious flavor by themselves that you don't want to over power it with too much stuff. <3

    Parboil for about five minutes then sautee with red onion and garlic and olive oil. When they begin to turn golden brown they are done.
