I have successfully convinced at least two people this year that they do, in fact, like brussels sprouts. When I was a kid, I didn't like them either, but this winter... I eat them constantly. Right now, my favorite way to eat them is roasted--Ina Garten's recipe is ridiculously easy and SO good.
ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs brussels sprouts, cut in half lengthwise
3 tbsp good olive oil
3/4 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
Preheat your oven to 400F.
Toss brussels sprouts with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a sheet pan and roast for 30-40 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally to ensure the brussels sprouts brown evenly. Sprinkle with more kosher salt if desired, and serve! I have eaten them hot out of the oven and also cold as leftovers and liked them immensely both ways. Even if you are a non-believer, I think you should give this a try... It is worlds different from the icky boiled brussels sprouts you may be familar with.
