How do you cook yours? I got some as part of a produce co-op but have no idea how to fix them. Someone said to steam them, but that seems a little boring.

    I love them roasted or like this: http://summertomato.com/brussels-sprouts-with-bacon/

    Definitely don't steam them. Yuck.

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add Brussels sprouts; sauté until lightly browned - or very browned, depending upon how you like them. Add 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/4 cup chicken broth to pan; cover and cook 4 minutes or until crisp-tender.

    I grill them, saute them, roast them, and steam them. I have never met a brussel sprout I would not eat. They are really good when they are just harvested and still on the stalk....the fresher the better.

    I don't. Those things are nasty.

    If you're up for something a little more decadent try brussel sprout and potato gratin. Delish!

    Thanks for the ideas! I'm not sure I've ever actually tried them, so I don't know what to expect.

    Cut in half, spray with olive oil and top with thin sliced fresh lemon. Roast at 350 for 20 minutes or so. The roasted lemon pieces are an added zing!

    Most people like them roasted with olive oil and salt and pepper. I hate them. Must be among the worst tasting vegetables that God created.

    We slice them in half, put them in olive oil with some salt and saute them. They are delicious if you let them get a little brown... MMMMmmmmm

    That's what I do, then I splash them with red wine vinegar a minute or two before they come off the heat.

    My favorite brussel sprouts have been with a little low sodium soy sauce, olive oil and garlic in a foil packet like a jacket potato and cook them on the grill, I am sure baked would work just as well. yummy!

    My favorite!! I cut them in half, lay them on a stoneware baking pan, spray with olive oil PAM, sprinkle with either sea salt or coarse black pepper and roast. Someone else mentioned cooking in a bit of oil then adding chicken broth - I do that as well, only I add three pieces of crumbled up center cut bacon. DELISH!!!
