This is a GREAT soup! My husband and I love brussel sprouts & I am always looking for new recipes. I did alter it a little. I added a tsp minced garlic, some diced carrots & garnished with crisp, crumbled turkey bacon & a little parmesian cheese......DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow. This is a deeeeeelicious soup! Granted, that brussels sprouts are my favorite vegetable, so that may have something to do with it. I loved the rich flavor from the egg yolk and cream. I used my immersion blender and pureed it about 80% smooth. It was perfect. I'll make this again. Thanx!

Love this recipe! We used veggie broth instead and added one clove of garlic. Delicious.
