This is the only way I can get my kids to eat them:
Steam brussel sprouts w/maple syrup dressing. Sounds strange but its really good.
Dressing:
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
1 tablespoon minced shallots
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/3 cup olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Mix all together and toss w/steamed brussel sprouts.

Fried Brussels Sprouts
We've served these to company many times and they're always a hit, even with people who think they don't like Brussels sprouts. We didn't think we liked Brussels sprouts, either, until our dear friends John and Judy Horwitz served them to us this way-and suddenly we were addicted.
Ingredients:
1 pound Brussels sprouts (fresh is best, but frozen will do)
Olive oil
3 or 4 cloves garlic, crushed
Procedure:
If you're using fresh Brussels sprouts, remove any bruised, wilted, or discolored outer leaves, and trim the stems. If you're using frozen Brussels sprouts, just thaw them.
In a heavy-bottomed pot or skillet, heat 1/2 inch of olive oil over a medium flame.
Add the Brussels sprouts and fry them, stirring occasionally, until they are very dark brown all over-you really want them just about burned.
For the last minute or so, add the garlic and stir it around well. Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the sprouts before the garlic burns. Unbelievable!
Brussel Sprouts in Pecan Sauce
Ingredients
(1 servings)
1 lb Brussel sprouts; trimmed wi
3 tb Margarine
1/4 c Pecans; chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Cook the brussel sprouts, covered in boiling salted water until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain. Keep warm. 2. Heat the butter in small saucepan and brown the pecans;do not let them burn. Pour the pecans over the Brussel Sprouts and eat. Serves 4 to 6.
Brussels Sprouts in Mustard Sauce

1 ts Mustard; Dijon-style
1/2 ts Pepper
1 tb Cornstarch
1/2 c Skimmed Evaporated Milk
Instructions
Cook the Brussels Sprouts in 1/2 cup of chicken broth; cover and set aside. Spray a small skillet with vegetable cooking spray and add the oil. Saute the onion in the oil then remove from the heat and slowly add the 1 cup of chicken broth. Sir in the mustard and pepper. Return to the heat and dissolve the cornstarch in the milk then add to the skillet mixture. Stirring constantly, cook until the sauce is smooth and thickened, about 5 minutes. Pour the mustard sauce over the cooked Brussels Sprouts and stir to coat. Serve at once.

Buy them fresh. Prepare them to cook(wash, dry, cut off bad parts)
Lay out flat on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix with your hands and spread out along the baking sheet.
Roast at 350 for about 30-45 min.
While roasting..slice about 3 cloves of garlic very thin.(more if you really like garlic)
In a hot skillet put some olive oil(about 1-2 Tbs) and add the garlic and some red chili flakes(to infuse the oil and to cook the garlic) cook until brown but DO NOT BURN..garlic is very bitter when burnt.
When the brussels come out of the oven pour the oil over them and serve.
Very healthy and very good! pairs well with any meat, fish or poultry!

to help your brussel sprouts to have more of a zing ....
take about 3 peices of panchetta'(itallian bacon) or you can use regular bacon.Preheat a non-stick skillet.Dice up your pork into small edible cubes(but not to small).Chop up one clove of garlic.In your pre-heated skillet put about 1/4 stick of butter or olive oil which ever you prefer,then add your bacon and garlic and brown your bacon and get it a little crispy.You don't want your bacon to be chewy.When that is done add your frozen sprouts on top and cover.Some frozen veggies do better than can or fresh.And if you don't eat pork you can simmer your sprouts in chicken broth.Some frozen veggies cook faster than others.But brussel sprouts,carrots,squash,and broccoli cook a little faster than the others.You can use this recipe to cook other veggies as well.When your sprouts are done,give a stir not to much or they may come apart .Pour into bowl and serve.
I hope I have helped you .Let me know.

I add butter, garlic and sesame seeds to my brussel sprouts, in as pan to carmelize. Sometimes a handful of crumbled feta is good on them too.
