Dharma, I agree with you that most frozen veggies, including brussels sprouts, come out fine if not overcooked. I generally cook them less than the package instructs.
I steamed some fresh brussels sprouts the other night, over top of the pasta I was cooking. Tonight I'm grilling tuna steaks, so I think I'll toss the leftover sprouts (which were somewhat undercooked the other night) in some olive oil, balsamic, and fresh thyme, and throw them on next to the tuna. I'm thinking they'll get hot and a little caramelized but not overdone.

Georgia... I like all my veggies crispy! Once frozen, the ice crystals that form from the freezing breaks down the cell walls, they all turn to mush, for me anyway... The only frozen veggies I like are peas, corn, ocra and french cut string beans... Otherwise I buy fresh... Esp. with a leafy veggie like sprouts... I wouldn't freeze lettuce or cabbage... sprouts are basically little cabbages... and frozen certainly would not work with my original post... Grilled Sprouts... and fresh sprouts are available all year round now... at least in the NY/NJ area... Just My opinion...

Hey, Elaine, you could always move back to the states, and you too could have fresh veggies! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Elaine, Have you ever tried that veggie stand/open market in Orleans, near Yvettes? Looks like they have a lot of fresh veggies on hand....

We do stop at the stands, and also hit up the Rasta Farm every couple of weeks. But we're not going to find brussels sprouts there!
Actually, we can occasionally get semi fresh sprouts at the groceries. Have to cook them really quick though!
