Every family has one, right? A sprouts-a-phobe? No? Well consider yourself blessed. I guess we’re lucky that my dad is the only one who will roll his eyes when he sees the green orbs set before him. Oddly he claims to like the Brussels sprouts recipes I’ve made for him, which makes his stated aversion seem even weirder. I know he’ll love this one too, which will make an appearance on our Thanksgiving table this year. (And if he doesn’t? More for us!) It’s a simple sauté of shallots, sprouts, and garlic, that are then browned in the oven and tossed with balsamic vinegar, toasted walnuts, and thyme. Couldn’t be easier! Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
