Cheesy Cabbage and Brussels Sprouts

I’m not a big fan of Brussels Sprouts, although my hubs is.  I just find them to have a bitter, chemical taste.  I can eat kale, broccoli and other strong veggies, but just not sprouts.  It’s about the only green veggie I don’t like too much.  Well, I fixed them a new way tonight and we BOTH loved them and agreed we’d be having them again!  I’ve finally found a way I can eat this veggie willingly.  🙂  This dish was indeed yummy!  The cheese and onion, as well as slicing the sprouts up mellows out the strong taste.  This recipe is suitable for all phases of Atkins, Keto diets and Primal eating plans.
