I picked this recipe A: because we like brussels sprouts and B. I was able to use fresh herbs from the garden! Easy and quick. Served with lemon wedges. Reviewed for Veg Tag October.

This is a good way to fix your brussels sprouts. I skipped the butter and used less oil to lower the fat. Walnut oil is pretty subtle. You could probably use a strong flavored finishing olive oil to get even more flavor out of it. Yummy nonetheless.

We do love Brussels sprouts, & this is such an easy way to prepare them! I did, however, steam the srpouts (my preferred method for cooking veggies)! Both of us liked the subtle hit of flavor from the walnut oil (a new ingredient on my shelves)! [Made & reviewed for the VIP chef in this month's Vegetarian/Vegan Recipe Swap 21]
