By tulawdog

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half lengthwise
• 1 teaspoon butter
• 6 ounces blue cheese
• 3/4 cup cream
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard

Preparation

Step 1

1
Heat an oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and bring a medium pot of salted water to boil.
2
Butter a shallow baking dish and set aside.
3
Add the Brussels sprouts to the water, bring back to a boil, and cook for 3 minutes. Drain, dry well, and arrange the sprouts in the buttered baking dish. Crumble the blue cheese over the sprouts.
4
In a small bowl, whisk together the cream, milk and mustard. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
