I love cabbage for Thanksgiving and my mom used to fix it all the time with bacon or sometimes with ham hocks and occasionally she would mix it with black eyed peas. However, I never thought about making brussels sprouts until this year. Since they’re mini cabbages, I thought I would love these too and it’s something different to serve on the table this year.
I was already cooking a big menu and I didn’t want to deal with a big cabbage so glad I opted for brussel sprouts instead. This recipe is for roasting them, but I saved some extras and sautéed the rest of them in leeks and green onions with balsamic vinegar and garlic. YUM YUM YUM is all I can say!
But roasting them is just as good too as in this recipe!
