The DH insisted on picking up a bag of frozen brussels sprouts the other
day. I nuked them for a minute and cut them in half. I had already put
some chunked sweet potatoes and red onions (with an olive oil drizzle
and some S&P) in the oven to roast. When they were about half done, I
added the brussels sprouts and let them go till the taters were done.
Was pretty good.
