Not many people enjoy Brussels sprouts, but to me, they are delicious! This recipe adds a few more ingredients to the dish to make it a little bit more special to serve at your holiday table. When deciding on what “seasonal nut” to include, I have use chopped pecans or pine nuts in the past, but the choice is yours!
I hope that you will give this dish a try and let me know what you think!
