Finished Brussel Sprout Casserole

Brussels Sprout Casserole

Brussels sprouts are pretty much my favorite vegetable. I used to not like them but then I realized I was just lacking the proper preparation.  In the past I’ve fried or baked them but today I’m going to combine them into a casserole. This makes it easy to prepare ahead of time and throw in the oven before a meal.
