Prepared as written, and entire non-brussels-sprouts-eating-family loved it. Perhaps not for "purists", but for a disparate group of picky eaters, very good.

My family (8 and 10 yr olds) loves brussels sprouts this way. We have made it over and over again since this recipe was originally published in USA WEEKEND a few years ago.

Great brussels sprouts recipe. I took one reviewer's suggestion and cooked the sprouts in the pan first with some olive oil and then added rest of the ingredients and some water so the sprouts wouldn't burn. I added chopped almonds instead of cashews. It tasted great! Served with baked sweet potato on the side.

Do not use frozen brussels sprouts for this recipe...it will be ruined. This recipe is very nice, and compliments a holiday meal very well.

Brussel Sprouts are in season...perfect time to try this! My hubby and I just recently have started eating them (and we are over 50!) and we tried another carmelized recipe from here and we are now hooked! So so good! These are a great variation of the other one. I changed it up regarding how I cook them and you might want to try this method as well! Steam the Brussels until tender but still crisp and set aside. Saute a sweet onion in the oil using the same skillet I steamed in on med-high to brown & carmelize the onions. Then add the sprouts and continue to saute adding the vinegar. When almost done & 'roasted looking' add the maple syrup, Dijon mustard & cashews if using them plus salt & pepper to taste!

It's pretty good. A bit too sweet for my taste, but would likely appeal to those who don't like sprouts. But why you feedin' sprouts to them if they don't like `em?

Awful. I followed this recipe exactly as written and I just didn't like the flavors. The combination of balsamic and maple syrup didn't combine well on the sprouts. I will not be making this recipe again.
