This brussels sprouts side dish is a delicious, semi-sweet dish that goes excellent with just about any meat or grain. It’s simple, easy, and can be eaten warm or cold!
Honestly, I’ve never been the biggest fan of brussels sprouts but only because overcooking can produce a harsh flavor. Brussels sprouts are a member of the cabbage family, containing lots of sulfur. When overcooked, they taste very similarly to garlic or onions. But when cooking gently with appropriate flavors, they can be either sweet or savory.
