Brussels Sprouts. What?!?

For a food that's supposed to be the epitome of gross, this has been one of my favorite dishes. Which means one of three things-
A. Brussel Sprouts aren't really that gross.
Dos) My tastes must not be fully formed, as long as it's warm- I'll eat it.
or Lastly- both.

Honestly though, who cares? I don't know why you're panicking about it anyway. All that matters is that THIS DISH IS SIMPLE.

Another thing to think about is that FRESHER IS BETTER for this one. It's a shorter time to cook, and from what I understand, the sprouts will come out crispier. I'm honestly not sure yet because I'm cheap. I would rather get the frozen brussels and enjoy a slightly soggy sprout.

:::INGREDIENTS:::


Bag of Brussels Sprouts
a dish like the one pictured (not really an ingredient, more to hold the ingredients)
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper

Ok preheat the oven to 425! NOW!

Excellent work. Now we must open the bag of sprouts and dump them in dish. Well done.

This is where it gets exciting. Drizzle the Olive Oil on top of the frozen sprouts! What? DRIZZLE?!!? Oh no you didn't!
Oh yes, yes I did.
and now sprinkle the salt and pepper all over and MIX IT UP!



YESSSSSSSS NICE!

good good. Stick in the heated oven.

Leave it there, untouched, for 20 minutes. You can do this. I believe in you.

Take it out, stir it.
Add some more salt and pepper if you want.



Stick it back in.
Leave it there, untouched, for ANOTHER 20 minutes.

Now take it out. Maybe stir it again. (Mine's a bit crispy because I forgot about it. So awesome. Next time set a timer dumbass.)


Now you enjoy it! Perhaps as a side dish? Perhaps as a main dish? Perhaps as a satallite dish?
You decided.


I had chocolate milk with mine. Like a boss.
