Best recipe for brussel sprouts (kid vers)

[Anonymous]

Random question but any recommendations for tried and true kid-friendly brussel sprouts recipes? My kids don't like them (neither does my DH to be honest, and not my favorite veg either) but I keep getting them from my subscription service, so looking for ways that I can cook them right.
TIA!

Roast them until they get brown and caramelized. Add melted butter and chestnuts if you want to be decadent, or a little pancetta or crispy bacon.

Shave them and cook in a pan with olive oil, salt and pepper

Coat in a squeeze of lemon, olive oil, and salt and pepper. Roast at ~400 until carmelized. Pull and toss with grated parm and squeeze a little more lemon to taste.

Deep fried are the best IMO, but not practical for everyday eating.
Roast with salt and olive oil on high heat - the best way to make sure they get crispy and charred around the edges is to spread them out cut side down in a single layer with space between the sprouts.

shred them (if you have a food processor you can use the shredder blade) and eat them raw--I like them with a creamy dressing or vinaigrette; and it helps to let them sit a bit for them to soften. I think if you used ranch dressing and added some croutons or bacon bits it could be pretty kid-friendly!

Cut the bottoms off, slit them in half and toss with olive oil and kosher salt. Sprinkle bacon bits atop (or a T of maple syrup if your family prefers sweet to salty). Roast at 425 until delicious

Cut them small, Mask the taste as best you can, and cook the heck out of them.

I cut them in half, put them on a cookie sheet, brush with olive oil, add a little salt and pepper, and bake for 30 min at 400. My kids love them.

My kids won't eat them anyway I cook them, but OTHER kids like them either:
-- roasted with olive oil and salt, then coated with a bit of real maple syrup and a mild mustard

-- shredded and sauteed in olive oil with garlic and shredded carrots and salt

I prefer the first because it is so good as leftovers -- they decline them and then I eat just a big bowl of them the next day for lunch. So yummy.

Same here. Unfortunately I think it’s a taste that a fair number of people are just never going to like. If they won’t eat it this way, I’m not sure extra layers of flavor will help much.

We call the edges that get brown and crispy vegetarian bacon.

I like them in salad form, too. Raw and shredded (I just do it with a knife) with dried cranberries and goat cheese or bleu cheese.
