I've made this a couple times now, it's soooooo goooood! Tonight I made them with slivered almonds and I think I like those even better. The flavor of the nuts is more mellow and you et more of the Brussels sprout flavor.

Thanks to Alton I've started eating Brussels sprouts after decades of thinking they were the most repulsive things imaginable. This recipe was awesome, the sweet, tart hit of the cranberries with the crunchy pecans and earthy, slightly pungent sprouts mixed perfectly, and I'm not even a big fan of cranberries either. I'm actually happy finding great recipes like this showing me that even the worst tasting veggies can be delicious!

A lovely spin on brussels sprouts. The pecans add a lovely crunch and the cranberries add a nice sweet/sour quality which plays off the sprouts well. The only change I made is that I used fresh cranberries instead of dried. They add a bit of juiciness that the dried would not have had. This is also a surprisingly quick and easy recipe.

Was perfect with the smoked ham, brown apple sauce, and mashed potatoes we had for Christmas Dinner.

Exceptionally tasty and visually appealing. Alton always comes up with something clever and this recipe will even make those who say "I do not like brussels sprouts" rethink their stand. It was excellent paired with Alton's famous Good Eats Roast Turkey.

This is AMAZING!!! I like Brussels sprouts in general, but this was the first time I tried them shaved. FYI, Trader Joes sells them already shaved in case you don't feel like using a food processor. I usually do not follow recipes to the T, but this time I did, and I think I have a new side dish. Easy and delic, I have a new favorite way to cook Brussels sprouts!

This was delicious! I'm allergic to pecans so I substituted the pecans for almonds and it was still good. Will def make again.

This was so yummy!!! My husband loved it; and he hates brussels sprouts. My only addition to this dish was a teaspoon of sugar just to cut the bitterness. All in all it's a keeper!!!1

I thought this recipe was really good. My dad and I aren't big fans of brussels sprouts and both of us really liked this recipe. My family thought it could have used a few more cranberries and the addition of balsamic vinegar was suggested as a possible addition in the future. This recipe will definitely be used again.
