While I've always known that they were good for me, I've shied away from making them because I was afraid I'd mess them up and consequently, not like them. So, I surprised myself while walking through Target (of all places!), by picking up a bag. Last night seemed like a good night to saute them with some onions, garlic, grape tomatoes, and pasta. I seasoned all of this with some red pepper flakes (I love spicy food), salt, and black pepper.
I found that making brussel sprouts is surprisingly easy. If I can do it, anyone can do it. I promise. Here's what I did:
First, trim the ends off then cut the cute little guys in half.
Drop them in a pan of hot olive oil along with some salt and pepper, toss and reduce heat to medium. I covered them for about 6min, occasionally flipping them around in the oil.
After about 6min or so, I added some garlic, onion, and red pepper flakes. Covered it again while my pasta finished cooking, another 3-4min. Once the pasta was done, I tossed the pasta and grape tomatoes in with it. Below is the finished product. I finished it off with some parmesan cheese. Deeelish!

That looks delish! Maybe I will branch out and try it. I literally don't think I have ever had one in my life! Sad but true! haha -Sus
One of my favorite veggies. This looks like a great way to prepare them. They also hold up really well when roasted with root vegetables just through them in about 20 minutes into roasting.
Yummy!!
