My mom is going to be happy to hear that I have finally learned to eat my vegetables – even brussels sprouts!  My vegetable repertoire was rather limited as a child.  I ate canned green beans and that was it.  So it is not a surprise that until a few weeks ago I had never eaten  brussels sprouts!  I was not a very adventurous eater, even as an adult.  It hasn’t been until the last 6-10 years or so that I have really learn to branch out in my food choices.  I am so glad I did!
Did you know that brussels sprouts are actually miniature little cabbages? Â They are kind of cute!
Over the holidays we took the kids out to try a new restaurant and one of the dishes we ordered was  brussels sprouts. When my daughter in law and son (This is my son that doesn’t eat anything green) started raving about them I knew I had to try t hem too.  They were delicious.  I decided I needed to go home and try to recreate them.
After a little web search I found a recipe from White on Rice Couple that I tweaked just a bit for great success!
The brussels sprouts are sliced in half and then covered with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt and pepper.
They are then roasted for 5-10 Â minutes (depending on the size of your brussels sprout) and then mixed with a teriyaki glaze.
Your roasting time will vary depending on the size of your brussels sprout. Â Mine were fairly small so they only roasted for about ten minutes total. Â You can just use a fork test on them and when they get to the tenderness you like, they are done. Â I don’t like my veggies too mushy so I tend to leave them a little crisp.
The sweetness of the teriyaki glaze almost makes you feel like you are eating dessert! Â They really are that good.
So if brussels sprouts are new to you too – give them a try. Â I think you are going to be pleasantly surprised and if you are an experienced brussels sprouter please try this too!

Nice sprouts recipes. Thanks so much Leigh Anne. Have a great week.
Tammy says
I made these the first time with the glaze, but got a bit lazy the second time and left it off. My kids loved them without the glaze. I never thought I’d hear my kids saying they liked brussels sprouts! Thanks!
JenM says
Leigh Anne – these Brussels were amazing! My husband took seconds, which hardly ever happens with veggies. Thanks for another great recipe.
Leigh Anne says
My husband went crazy for them too and keeps asking for me to fix them again and again!

I grew up eating Brussels sprouts. They are soo good!! Have you seen them growing or on the stalk in the store? Very fun to see. Our school has served roasted Brussels sprout several times this year.
Leigh Anne says
I have seen them on the stalk – they look so fun! Do the kids eat them when they serve them??
Dawn Nelson says
Most who take them eat them. I just made your recipe. They are delicious, but took a bit longer to roast, more like 30 minutes total.
Leigh Anne says
My brussels sprouts were pretty small. I used bigger ones last week and they took longer to roast. Glad you liked them
Kris Wolverton says
I’ve never had brussels sprouts either but a goal this year is to try them. I will try this recipe. But how to disguise them to my husband….:)
