Can a brussel sprout actually taste good? I was asked this question recently by a confirmed veggie hater. Yes, I told her, absolutely they can, if covered in cheese! (Ok, I know that cheese makes everything taste better, but stay with me here…)
If you also hate veggies, or have kids that hate veggies, I can almost guarantee they’ll eat this recipe without too many complaints. It’s great for a weeknight meal because it uses few ingredients and cooks in a flash. I love to serve it with tilapia and mashed potatoes.
I make mine with fresh sprouts, but frozen is always an option. Be flexible with whatever you have on hand.
To cook Sautéed Brussel Sprouts with Cheese, you will need:
* 1 lb Fresh sprouts, washed and halved
* 2 TBS. Olive Oil
* 1/3 Cup water
* Salt/Pepper to taste
* 1 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add Brussels sprouts and salt/pepper. Cook, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add water and cook until evaporated, about 3 minutes. Sprouts should now be crisp-tender, and the cheese should be added. When cheese is melted, remove to plate and serve immediately.
Tasty, healthy, good!
I love brussels sprouts. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Mmmm- I make mine with red onions, Parmesan and bacon– I suppose turkey bacon would be a great sub for you? I like them just with olive oil too though:)
I love Brussels sprouts. I am the only one in the house who likes them, though, so I never make them at home.
We eat a lot of brussel sprouts. Oven roasted is the best!! I never want to change the taste with cheese, but the Grandkids would like them that way.
I will have to try these Sautéed Brussel Sprouts with Cheese for my family. Maybe the will eat them this way. Thanks for the recipe. Already pinned it.
I never thought of covering brussel sprouts with cheese! How delicious!! I can’t wait to try it!!
I love brussel sprouts just fine by themselves, but something about adding cheese makes them darn addicting!
Mmm! I love Brussels sprouts and meant to pick some up today. Now I’ll have to get some soI can try this out.
I LOVE Brussel Sprouts!! I have never tried them with cheese but these look yummy!!!
This looks like something I would like
I love brussel sprouts. Kiddo enjoys them, hubs hates them. I love making them with a little butter and garlic. I haven’t put cheese on them, ever. Odd since I love cheese.
This looks really good! I’ve never tried Brussels sprouts before. I could see me loving this though!
Ohhh these look so yummy. I do mine cut up and in the oven, toassed with olive oil, garlic and salt and pepper. So good.
I have always wondered how you can cook Brussels sprouts, thanks for this. My neighbor always grow so many of these and they would often offer us some but I don’t get it because I don’t know how to prepare them. My first time eating it doesn’t help either because I had it once at a restaurant and it was bitter.
Well that’s a new way to try brussel sprouts. I haven’t had them since I was a kid and my mom made me eat them. I bet I”d like them way better now.
They do say cheese makes everything taste better and this is proof! I usually hate brussel sprouts but I would eat these in a heart beat.
I’ve never really been a fan of brussel sprouts but the cheese sauce makes them sound amazing! Thanks for sharing – would love to try it!
Everything is better with cheese on it! I can only eat green vegetables like broccoli with cheese!
I never liked brussel sprouts as a kid but recently I have been eating them whenever I can and will definitely try out this recipe.
I love brussel sprouts! They are one of my favourite veggies and I am always looking at new ways to make them. I love idea of adding cheese. Maybe now I will be able to get my kids to eat them.
Honestly, I’ve never had brussel sprouts yet. I’ve been wanting to try it but never found a good recipe yet. Your recipe sounds good.
LOVE Brussel Sprouts! We all do in my house, have never tried them with cheese but this could be something we should try. It looks delicious!
Um this looks amazing! I bet even my kids would eat this!
Never would I have thought of adding cheese to sprouts. I roast them regularly and they are delicious. Super good for you too!
Oh my gosh. I’m seeing this at 2:30am and I am getting hungry! Makes me want to eat Brussel Sprouts.
It doesn’t look that great but I think it’s going to taste wonderful !! Thank you !!
