Tried something new with Brussels sprouts and this recipe hits it outta the park. I also added wild mushrooms to this for an even heartier side.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

If you are a Brussels sprout lover, these will make you swoon. When prepared like this, there's a love affair in the making. These are slightly crisp outside and tender inside after cooking. The garlic adds a nice touch of flavor along with the wild mushrooms. The balsamic vinegar brings this tasty side dish together.
