  1. Frozen actually work fine! Microwave them a couple minutes to begin the thawing process then drain any water, cut in half, toss with a little olive oil , sprinkle lightly with sea salt and roast at 375 degrees for roughly 20 minutes, or until browning and carmelized. So delicious and addictive!

    1. I agree just keep the recipe simple and easy roasting it great. The thing we add is smoked maple syrup during the roasting for some sweetness.

      1. Sounds yummy! I always sauté in a little bacon fat, add crumbled bacon bits and a little lemon zest and about a tablespoon of lemon juice, no salt. I think I’ll try it with the Maple Syrup instead of lemon next time; obviously, without the lemon, a little sea salt will finish it beautifully! Sounds so good!

  2. Use your heads…the tablespoon of salt is only in the cooking water, and you’re not drinking the water!

  3. What is wrong with you people?? The salt is in the water not directly on sprouts. It’s like when you cook pasta. You can modify. Use your brain

  4. What is wrong with people??????? If you don’t want all the salt don’t use it! And yes the vegetables will absorb the salt from the water., making this soon, need to buy shallots and Brussels.

  5. wow I didn’t think this was facebook.. Receipe looks awesome. I will try and let you know!!
    Thanks for all the good receipes!!

  6. Adjust people!!!!! If the salt doesn’t fit into your diet menu just omit or use a smidge, this is not the politician stump trail! OR at least don’t express your views on this just ADJUST THE SALT–GIVE ME A BREAK!! Here for recipes and food comments not politics!

  7. I use EVOO instead of butter. Let each person add salt to their taste instead of cooking with it. Also freshly cracked black pepper instead of white pepper.

  8. I use a combination of oil, butter and drippings from bacon that I also add to my sprouts. Just before they are done I sprinkle honey roasted peanuts or cashews on top. I bake them most of the time and test them a couple of times if there’s a lot of different sizes. Always use fresh that come in a netted bad at most grocery stores where I love (VA).
