"BIG HIT! Made this for Sunday dinner today even though I was not a brussel sprout fan. This recipe changed my mind. I did not add walnuts as we are allergic. I added a 'pat' of butter & a pinch of sugar to offset the bitterness, it was amazing. Will be a regular side dish! Thanks Pat & Gina"

"I made the Neely's Shrimp & Grits dish for our 2nd Annual Gathering of Girlfriends' Holiday Ornament Exchange, Tree Trimming and Potluck at my home. I received so many compliments from las year, I made it again. I drained the diced tomatoes per the recommendation of reviewers. The most important thing is timing the adding of the shrimp right as guests arrive so the shrimp won't be overcooked. The recipe was a huge hit and a permanent item on our menu!!!
