BS- you know... Brussels sprouts. That's what you thought I meant, right?
~*~
These oft maligned veggies are actually one of the only ones that all three of us really like. And that isn't due to any fancy cooking on my part. I usually just steam them and add a little butter and salt. Or, sometimes I saute them with a bit of garlic. Tonight I think I will give THIS recipe a go... basically my usual saute but adding parmesan for a finishing touch.

So, do you like BS? I have a theory that they are a love it or hate it food. Leave a comment and let's see if I'm right!

PS- clicking on the photo will bring you to a blog called the Tiny Farm Blog. You can get an interesting, firsthand account of harvesting Brussels sprouts! And for a website where you can learn all there is to know about the Brussels sprout? Right here: http://www.brussels-sprouts.com/BSINFO.htm I found that one while searching for the correct answer to whether it is Brussels sprout or Brussel sprouts. Yep, you learn something new every day- if you're lucky!

Jennie, Your blog is just so diverse...it's amazing!
Upto the age of 19yrs, the only veggies I ate were salad ones and peas and potatoes.
Then when i moved in with Gary, he ate everything, and made me eat a tiny bit of everything too (hence my theory about if you eat something 10 times...lol).
And now I LOVE brussels sprouts, they are one of my favourite veg...MMMmmm yum, yum :D
Have a lovely evening Jennie, take care my dear,
Love n hugs,
Donna xxOOxx
I used to hate them.. but I always had them over-cooked...then I met my hubby and he cooks them (just)..they are GORGEOUS! Also, I love them grated and sprinkled on the top of salad.. Mmmmm quite a peppery flavour!
Whoops I meant to say they are RAW on top of salad... nom nom nom :)x
I admit, I have never actually eaten a Brussels sprout! Perhaps I need to now.
By the way, as an educator, I love your concluding line! :-)
"So, do you like BS?"
Nope! LOLOL! No matter how you cook em, the answer is still NOPE!
Love them....quartered then sauteed or roasted with a little garlic sauteed in olive oil drizzeled over them, salt and pepper...magnificent! I could make a meal of them...with a loaf of fresh bakery rustic french bread...to die for!!
