Jennifer tried several different ways to make brussel sprouts, and some tasted bad and others- not so bad.  Jason and I tried this recipe (since we had a lot of brussel sprouts we had to use up and cook before they went bad) and this was one of those not so bad recipes.  The best we could do with brussel sprouts so far (the pecans truly make a difference).
