Sure, brussels sprouts had some dark, mushy, overcooked days. But in recent years we've learned how fantastic they can be if you have the right brussels sprouts recipes. We love these little guys shaved in a slaw or glazed until glistening or roasted, cut side down, until chip-like and crispy. Here are a few of our favorite ways to serve brussels sprouts now, whether you're putting a weeknight dinner on the table or trying to bring an all-star side to Thanksgiving.

When you look at the right brussels sprouts recipes, you learn a thing or two. Here's one tip you can take with you: For maximum caramelization, make sure the cut sides of the brussels sprouts are flush with the bottom of the baking dish. That'll give you crispy brussels sprouts with gorgeous, golden-brown edges. This dish also gets a bit of a flavor boost from pancetta, which melts a bit over the vegetables.
