    I love brussel sprouts and pondered over several recipes before choosing this one, I picked the right one. This recipe is great but its definately not going to help anyone keep the pounds off over the holidays. I didn't add the extra 1/2 cup of parm at the end because I was starting to get scared of all of the igredients that I was adding especially after the sauce started to thicken, it turned out good without it but I bet it would be good with it too. I also added an extra 3/4 pound of brussel sprouts and I like how it came out (might be a little to heavy on the sauce otherwise.

    My family adores this--even the brussel sprout haters among us. I use less nutmeg than it calls for, but be sure to use freshly grated nutmeg. Definately use fresh brussel sprouts.

    I LOVE brussel sprouts but this dish had more heavy, gloppy cheese sauce than it had brussel sprouts. As I completed the recipe as written, I still added about one more pound of brussel spouts, but that wasn't the answer. TOO MUCH heavy cream and half n half, too much parm cheese and definitely WAY TOO MUCH NUTMEG....1 TEASPOON ARE THEY KIDDING!!! This recipe did no justice to brussel sprouts or my stomach.

    I made this recipe for Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. It smelled so good while it was cooking that I thought "if this tastes half as good as it smells it will be fabulous!" Well, it tasted even better than it smelled and it was FABULOUS!!!

    This recipe is absolutely wonderful; people who don't normally like brussel sprouts should give this a try. There isn't one person who has tried this and didn't like it. There are no adjustments necessary; I add more cheese and bacon. This dish is especially good during the holidays. Make sure not to burn the dish and keep an eye on it, stirring it occasionally.

    This was another of my son's contributions to our "Food Network Thanksgiving" and it was a hit. It was a bit of a bother prepping the sprouts, but well worth the effort. It was a delightful change from the green beat casserole we normally have. We heated up the leftover sprouts the following evening, which we served with Rachel Ray's Turkey Croquettes with Rosemary-Mushroom Gravy and they worked equally well with this leftover meal. This is a recipe we plan on making again.

    I like Brussels sprouts plain - steamed with a little salt. However, I recently decided to look for a different way to serve Brussels sprouts and found this recipe. My husband raved about it and I loved it too! I used a generic red cooking wine. I did not have any Prosciutto handy so I substituted crumbled bacon. What a good recipe -- I will make this one again and again.
