Nobody around to cook for tonight – ate this all by itself for dinner, LOL! WAY better than plain boring brussels sprouts!!! Will definitely make again, thanks! When I added the sour cream, it looked thin so I tossed in a small amount of whole wheat flour. I, too had to use frozen sprouts.
I was determined to find a brussel sprouts recipe that I would actually make a second time. I am not a lover of brussel sprouts, but figured if I kept trying recipes, I would find one to suit my taste. Well these will get a second chance.
Had to use frozen sprouts as there were no fresh ones to be found at three different stores. Just cooked them a little before hand, then followed recipe. Made for ZWT6
This recipe was found on www.recipes.wuzzle.org & is placed here in preparation for the ZWT6. Although the sprouts in the original recipe were probably cooked in a frying pan, I would steam mine.
I thought these were awesome!! LOVED the sauce! I could have eaten the whole bowl myself! YUMMY!!
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons bacon bits
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 dash hot sauce, or to tastesalt to taste.
