So you don’t like Brussels spouts?
Well I’ll bet you’d like these!
No?
LOL!!
Okay….
What if I added something extra?
Aww c’mon….open your mind to some real good food!
By the way, the Brussels spouts shown here came from the frozen aisle!
Lady G cooked them earlier this week 🙂
From FROZEN!
Can you believe that?
Yeah, sometimes I buy frozen because I often wait too long to cook fresh veggies and they end up going bad.
So…I buy them frozen and cook them just as I would if they were fresh.
YAAASSS!
When are y’all coming over to eat?
Have a wonderful week!
Love and light to you!
Lady G
😘💋

Lol at the internal dialogue throughout this. I don’t like brussel sprouts! Thing is: I’ve never even had them! I know, I know, that makes no senseeee. I just don’t like how they look and the name “brussel sprouts”. Lol, we have to rename them!
Is that bacon I see in the pictures? If so, that is a good selling point! I am open to trying them, and the more you have on the plate to take all the attention away from the brussel sprouts THE BETTER lol.

Hi! If I can tell you a short story? I came here from Chevvy’s blog. She and I believe in “synchronicity” and it’s power. And quite coincidentally, I had Brussels sprouts with bacon and butter just this week, so when I saw your post & pic, I did a double take!
Looks appetising!
Merry 🎄 Christmas!

after all these years of living I’m just now getting into Brussels sprouts. The first time I ate some. I didn’t know what they were and called my sister to ask what them little, circle, green vegetables are. She asked was I serious and then said they are Brussels sprouts. I told her that I had just ate some. She laughed at me then said I was slow. LOL!

Okay, I have a confession. I lived in Brussels when I got my masters. I worked there too. So I had years to embrace those little sprouts. Never once did I try them. Your photo just inspired me to come up with a dish. And like you, I’ll be visiting the frozen isle too. If you’re not buying seasonal, then the frozen section is the place to be. 🙂

Love Brussels sprouts! I usually cut them in half and use Olive oil and garlic salt. I tried to make the frozen kind, but they ended up mushy 😦

I think the key to frozen is to limit any additional water and to cook them a little less longer than you’d normally cook them. At least that’s what I did here 🙂

I had to laugh at Tracy’s comment there – you’d better convert them. On the other hand, I haven’t eaten brussels sprout in a while. We usually cook them in what we call a “Potjie kos) this is a mixture of all sorts of things thrown into a three-legged cast iron pot on an open fire. Your food looks good enough to eat off the screen. Mouth watering and sumptuous!😀

Hello there friend!
I just fry up a little bacon in a pan, remove the bacon add the sprouts then let them steam in the bacon drippings with a little water.
Et voila!
Oh yeah, I chop the cooked bacon and sprinkle over the sprouts.
I season with salt and red pepper flakes.
If you decide to try it let me know! I’d love to hear how it turned out 🙂
