The recipe calls for a 1/4 cup of lemon basil vinegar. I don't see anywhere that alludes to mushrooms, but I personally made this with whole baby portobello mushrooms in addition to the brussels sprouts. I loved them both.

Very flavorful and easy to make. Company worthy side dish. Next time I make this I'll add chopped walnuts. I'm also going to try this as a marinade for various types of mushrooms, baked or sautéed..

Thank you!

This is by far the yummiest way to eat Brussels Sprouts. I have made it a few times and my husband and I love this. They taste so delicious and are so healthy. I do not have access to the Lemon vinegar in Australia,  so I used red wine vinegar.  Thank you Dr Fuhrman. A definite improvement on both of our previous unplesant experiences of eating sprouts cooked in water when we were kids some 60 years ago.

An hour and a half cooking time.  By the way to save time-  just steaming the sprouts for about 6-8 min and then pouring the beautiful vinaigrette on top is absolutely tasty! (Just tried it). And - Dr. F's Lemon Basil Vinegar is sooooo worth it to search it out.

One of my favorite nutritarian recipes! I didn't have Dr. Fuhrman's Lemon Vinegar so I  used 3 TBS of white wine vinegar subbed 1 TBs of lemon juice and the zest of half a lemon for one of the 4 TBS (=1/4 cup) of vinegar. Absolutely delicious! I also found that after 1 hour with the foil on they were cooked to perfection. No additonal time needed.

This is absolutely amazing.  Instead of baking the whole hour, I steamed the brussel sprouts for 5 minutes. I didn't have the lemon balsamic but I grated the peel of a lemon and added it to the balsamic vinegar.  I then strained the brussel sprouts and tossed the in the mixture and baked on parchment paper lined sheet for half about 15 -20 min instead. It worked out superbly.
