If You Don’t Think You Like Brussels Sprouts, This Recipe Will Change Your Mind
If you have tried Brussels sprouts before and didn't really like them, you should give them another shot. Catherine Dowdy, from the UK Cooperative Extension Office in Owensboro, Kentucky joined WBKR-FM's weekly What's Cookin'? segment and served up a delicious adaptation of a recipe from Planeatmove.com. Look! Here's the truth about Brussels sprouts. While they may not taste all that great by themselves, they are a food that truly absorb the flavors they're cooked in. If you find the right combination of flavors, those sprouts can be really tasty.
Here's a a prime example. Check out this recipe for Not Your Grandma's Brussels Sprouts.
NOT YOUR GRANDMA'S BRUSSELS SPROUTS
1 pound Brussels sprouts, quartered
