The maple syrup caramelizes on them and I swear they are the best ones I've ever had...

    You will be glad you did!
    I couldn't get over how amazing they were lol... I was literally putting 'em on Facebook, texting my family, etc with the recipe minutes after I tasted them.
    I DID have the baby brussels sprouts I got from the Amish market past weekend, so maybe that had something to do with it, but the overall flavor OH MY :)

    I should note, I decreased the syrup and oil because I didn't have enough calories left for the day, and it still came out DELICIOUS :) So, feel free to play around w/the quantities.

    Perfect combo! I had mine w/roast duck and as much as I was looking forward to that duck, these outshined the protein ;)
