VANITY: I HATE Brusells Sprouts

Frozen Food or Produce Section | Yours Truly

They're just all slimy and gross. I like most other veggies, but Brussells sprouts are disgusting.

[o_zarkman44]

Enough of that hate speech. I happen to love brussell sprouts, in butter

[darkangel82]

Brussel sprouts are a WMD.

[Ditter]

Lots of stuff gets slimy when it is over cooked! Cut them in half and simmer in chicken broth for just a few minutes. YUM!

“Omyx” is watching a movie tonight....
and might eat some Brussel Sprouts!

NO possum pie!!!
Allegra, don’t listen to him.
PLEASE don’t. :)

[Domandred]

Beats. Beats are the only food I won’t eat (so far at least).

Brussels sprouts gotta get em before they get too bitter then smother them with butter.

[GQuagmire]

More cowbell



Less sprouts

[ErnBatavia]

Ahem.....they're about the most virulent flatulence producers on the planet.

Blow off a brussel sprout poot on a great date - even at the moment of finding the Promised Land - and it's all over.

Trust me on this......

[Domandred]

what's the deal with arugula, anyway?

I never saw arugula at my local store till The One became President. It's a plot I tell you.

[Army Air Corps]

Bush’s fault.

[o_zarkman44]

Use sea salt instead. yummy

[rmlew]

Have you tried sauteeing or roasting them?

[bert]

Ok, here’s the recipe for fantastic brussel speouts.

Saute them in sesame oil, add a little soy sauce and then coat them in browned sesame seeds.

They are very good

[Allegra]

You know what’s good? Brussel sprouts and gin. Seriously. Well, gin with a side of brussel sprouts. Hold the sprouts.

Now, see, I hate brussels sprouts. And people are being very kind and helpful, posting a wide variety of ways to perhaps make them more palatable.

But I hate 'em, so cooking them differently or putting different stuff on them isn't going to change that.

However, your recommendation is one that I could try and probably like.

[combat_boots]

Broiled. With a little olive oil. Very different breed of cat then.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

I don’t know if I like them or not, haven’t had them for a long time.

I’ll bet they’d be real good steamed properly and served with some sauteed onions and breakfast sausage.

Maybe a little hint of vinegar as a condiment.

[Allegra]

Have you tried sauteeing or roasting them?

No, but I've tried scraping them off the plate into the trash.

They're really good that way. :)

[Fiddlstix]

Hmmmm.......
Last time you said you liked my Possum Pot Pie.......
(Didn't you?)

If they are the larger sprouts, cut them in half, toss them in a little bit of olive oil and salt then roast them in a preheated 400-425 degree oven for about 15-20 minutes until fork tender. Then if you like, have a little side of mayo (optional) for dipping. They take on a nutty flavor and really are wonderful cooked that way. In fact most veggies cooked that way are so much tastier than boiled.

[roamer_1]

I'd rather eat toe jam than Brussels sprouts myself.

I will refrain from asking how you know that preference...
