Roasted Brussel sprouts. Y*m!

http://cookingwiththemark.blogspot.com

Ingredients
Brussel sprouts (Cook a lot)
2 onions, coarsely chopped
olive oil

Directions
Peal off the first layer of leaves of the sprouts. Steam them until cooked about half way through-about five minutes. Then toss them with the onions in olive oil and place on a cookie sheet or pizza pan. Roast at 350° for 30 minutes, turning once to brown evenly. Serve with salt and pepper.

I suppose it'd be okay, but I'd omit the onions.

<<<wonders if the primitive habit of saturating everything with onions is responsible for certain chemical imbalances in their brains, which would then cause intellectual confusion and retardation.

2. I do something similiar

Dice a half pound of bacon into small pieces. Spread on single layer in baking dish. Bake until not quite done. Add diced onion, prepared brussel sprouts, sliced mushrooms, and cut asparagus spears. Coat in bacon drippngs that are in the baking dish. Cover. Bake until v*****s are crisp tender.
 
Y*m. Roasted brussel sprouts in almosr any form are a personal favorite.

They're not anything I dine on more than two or three times a decade, but I got nothing against Bruxelles sprouts; if someone offers me some, and they've got no onions, mushrooms, peppers, olives, peas, or dead fish in them, sure, I'll chow down on them.

I'll take the onions, mushrooms, peppers, olives, fish, and even the peas if they're by themselves.

The sprouts go straight to the disposal.

Oh now, they're not that bad, although they're not anything I'd eat on a daily basis.

By the way, this is the second day in a row that the primitives used the dead white man imperialistic eurocentric version of the name of a foreign city--yesterday, they called it "Peking duck" rather than "Beijing duck."

Considering that the primitives want to be s-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o politically correct, this flummoxes me.

At this rate, it'll take them decades to get used to "chicken Kyiv," I'll bet.

Yeah, TiT never bragged about downing a quart of Mumbai Sapphire every night.

I put onions in just about everything I cook.  Texas staple.

Disgusting little green balls of stench.
Nothing but solid farts.
Not good for anything except maybe ammo for a carbide cannon.

Take the original recipe and add bacon and cayenne pepper.  That's love in a pan right there.

Even with a gun to my head, I'll be damned if I call Bombay that stupid politically-correct  mumble-jumbo name.
