Brussels sprouts

I think they rock.

I could have taken a dozen more pics---it was the strangest thing!

These were sautéed in olive oil and then steamed for a bit (just put a cover on the sauté pan), then seasoned with salt and pepper. I am now ready to go to our potluck tonight.

I LOVE Brussel sprouts! And - surprise and delight - so does Lila! I steam them, then sautee them in a little butter and either orange juice or raspberry jam, with a dash of maple syrup. You could easily go without the butter, or use a vegan substitute. I also like them the way you prepared them, but I think without that hint of sweet, my little one would balk. Right now, I'm just thrilled she's eating something that is not white :)

I thought of adding sweet to the mix. But, since I was making this for others, I opted to stay safe (in that I usually prepare these savory). This time.

Next time, definitely going for the sweet.
