  2. I never thought I would like brussles sprouts either! I made them once but the recipe I did I didn't care for. My friend Michelle K gave me her recipe, so simple and delicious! I ate the left overs for lunch today and I have to say the brussles sprouts were even tastier cold! I can't wait to buy more and have them in my fridge, roasted for a snack! Try them you never know!
