While we absolutely love a roasted Brussels sprout, shaved Brussels sprouts add much-appreciated versatility to the mix. The fact that you can now buy them pre-shaved at your supermarket is a huge time saver, turning this into a 30-minute side perfect for any holiday table. We tossed the sprouts with melty cheeses and baked them until rich and bubbly for a vegetable dish even the pickiest kids will come back for.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in a large high-sided saute pan or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and shallot and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add half of the Brussels sprouts, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until the sprouts are softened and wilted, about 1 minute. Add the remaining sprouts and continue to cook until tender and bright green, about 5 minutes more. Stir in the Monterey Jack, cream, Parmesan and 1/3 cup of the salad dressing spread until combined. Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Stir the remaining 3 tablespoons salad dressing spread with the panko, parsley and remaining 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a small bowl, then sprinkle over the top of the casserole. Bake until the breadcrumbs are well browned and toasted and the sauce is bubbling all over, 30 to 35 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
CREAM-BRAISED BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Brussels sprouts tend to turn people off. This way of cooking them brings out their nutty flavor and has made the most passionate haters at my last Thanksgiving say, at the very least, that this is the best brussels sprouts have tasted. The first time I made this, it ended up being dinner - not a side dish!

Steps:
- Melt the butter in skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts are browned in spots, about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the cream, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the sprouts are tender and easily pierced with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes. The cream will have reduced in volume, and will have taken on a creamy beige color. Remove the lid, and stir in the lemon juice. Allow the sprouts to simmer a few minutes more until the cream thickens and coats the sprouts. Season to taste with additional salt and lemon juice before serving.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS
This recipe is from my mother. It may sound strange, but these are really good and very easy to make. The Brussels sprouts should be brown with a bit of black on the outside when done. Any leftovers can be reheated or even just eaten cold from the fridge. I don't know how, but they taste sweet and salty at the same time!

Tips:
- Choose fresh Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, brightly colored sprouts with tightly closed leaves. Avoid any that are yellowing or have brown spots.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts: Remove any wilted or damaged outer leaves. Cut off the stem end and make a small X-shaped incision in the bottom of each sprout. This will help them cook evenly.
- Parboil the Brussels sprouts: This will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from becoming too brown. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the Brussels sprouts. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly firm. Drain the sprouts and set them aside.
- Make the creamy sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is golden brown. Slowly whisk in the milk and cream. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
- Assemble the casserole: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large baking dish, combine the parboiled Brussels sprouts, creamy sauce, and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat.
- Bake the casserole: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and the sauce is bubbly. Serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Creamy baked Brussels sprouts are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and they are also a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
