Yesterday evening Grandma Barb and I tried this new recipe that Grandma saw on Food Network (from Bobby Flay!) a few weeks ago. Now I love vegetables and all things healthy (well... most things) so I thought the brussels sprouts were pretty amazing. You may think miniature cabbages are disgusting, but you still have to try this!
What we did was buy a package of brussels sprouts from the grocery store, coated them with olive oil, salt and pepper (to taste) and roasted them in the oven at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. During that 20 minutes, we cut open the pomegranate and took all of the seeds out. **With a pomegranate, the only part you eat are the seeds!** Caution- The pomegranate is going to make a big, juicy mess. Where short sleeves and an apron to make sure you don't stain your clothes!
We left out the vanilla beans, pomegranate molasses, and pecans just because we didn't have the recipe on-hand and we were too lazy to make the molasses. :]] If you have some extra time then I think it would be a good idea to have these things. It was a delicious recipe, and I would recommend it for if you are having people over for dinner.
oooohh...that sounds really good.. i've been trying to get the boyfriend to try some brussel sprouts, but alas, he has the tastebuds of a 5-year old...this would be a good introductory!!! Thanks for the recipe!
