Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
Take about 3 pounds of trimmed brussels sprouts and trim off any dark spots. Coarsely chop them in a food processor fitted with a slicing blade.
Toss them in a plastic bag with about half a cup of extra-virgin olive oil, a few smashed cloves of garlic, Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
Spread them in an even layer on two rimmed baking sheats and roast in the oven for about half an hour, until they're tender and browned in spots. (Rotate the pans and stir the sprouts about half-way through)
Sprinkle with about half a cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and bake just a minute more, until the cheese is melted.
(Even people who think they hate brussels sprouts love these.)

Potatoes in all forms - favourite is sauteed or roasted.
Leeks in a cheese sauce (sometimes make leeks and potaotes cover them in cheese and bacon sauce and have just that)
Parsnips - yum when roasted
Onions - anyway except raw
Red, green, yellow peppers - pile them on
Anything green - won't eat green food, sorry!

A leek is a member of the onion family, but it has a softer more subtle taste - delicious. Can't get the picture to attach but google it - it is long a white at the bottow with green leaves that you discard.
Sorry - won't get me eating spinach for love nor money - repulsive (yes I have tried it - yuck)

My daughter rolls her eyes whenever she sees me buying leeks which I love. She knows that EVERY single time I get to the checkout, I'm gonna say to the cashier "Excuse me, this bags got a leek in it" just to watch them flapping about :sneaky:

That's better than someone asking you, "what are you having?"
and you say "I'm having a leek.".

I've heard Pinky talk about toad in the hole...she insisted that there were no toads...but the name of it just sort of turned me off...

I don't know, I don't know if I could take that big of a leap. I don't want to try amphibia, I usually only eat things that I am accustomed to.

Aside form the cuisine, I'm sure it would be a ribbiting experience.

Oh vegetables, I love Potatos (naturally, I'm Irish), I love cabbage, but only spring cabbage, or curly cabbage, I love sprouts, asparagus, broccolli, spinach, roast parsnips, mashed carrot and turnip with buttery spuds and garlic sausages, garden peas, green beans, cauliflower, kidney beans, chickpeas, pak choi, peppers, oh almost everything. But you should really buy fresh, and not over cook em, and serve em with something with a kick as well, if you like a bit of spice in your life.
I even wrote a poem about brussels sprouts you know, I really do like em!

Do you eat leeks plain by themselves at all?
