I make this all the time and the almond extract makes this recipe! I won't make brussels sprouts any other way now.

I loved this recipe. I left out the almond extract because it just sounded too weird. And I left out the chives because I didn't have any on hand, but I'm sure it would be even better with them. No doubt, it would be great with fresh brussels sprouts, but I used frozen like the recipe called for. I don't understand why someone who has a problem with frozen veggies would even be looking at a Sandra Lee recipe. We all know her premise is all about short cuts. Her recipes are not for cooking purists.
