Ok you baby cabbage haters, you have to try these! They are GREAT!!!!!!:thumb:



about 1 1/2 - 2 lbs Brussels sprouts
3 tablespoons good olive oil
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 - 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper



Set oven temp at 400F

Mix them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Shake the pan from time to time to brown the sprouts evenly.

Sushi,
That works nicely for a lot of vegetables. My wife has done that for years. She'll do some zucchini, carrot, sweet potato, regular potato, brussel sprout, broccoli, etc. Throw some thick sliced red onion on there, and some red, yellow, and green bell pepper for color. We also have a basket for on the grill, which works nicely too.

It takes a little experimenting when using more than one veggie; how thick they are cut affects the cook time.

A little soy sauce drizzled on is really good. If you use soy sauce, you can delete the salt(soy sauce is salty...)

I love brussle sprouts! I assume that these are fresh brussle sprouts you are using right? Not the frozen stuff?

The green stuff is zero points, the potato stuff maybe 3 points or so...(yes, I am working off 30lbs weight watchers).
