BETTER BRUSSELS SPROUTS



Better Brussels Sprouts image

This is the only way my kids will eat Brussels sprouts! It's actually ideal for me because this dish is fast, easy and healthy, and it makes a lovely side. Quick-cooking Brussels sprout halves are available in the prepackaged salad aisle at the grocery store. They're a timesaver if you can find them, but you can always just buy whole ones and slice them in half. -Teri Rasey, Cadillac, Michigan
