Title: Baked Sweet 'n Sour Brussels Sprouts
Categories: Diabetic Vegetable Side
Yield: 4 Sweet ones

10	oz	(1 pk) brussels sprouts;
1/3	c	Liquid Butter Buds;*
		(I don't about this, load with sodium-try something else)
2	tb	Cider vinegar;
1 1/2	ts	Sugar; (sugar sub)
1/4	ts	Tarragon;
1/8	ts	Marjoram;
1/8	ts	Freshly ground pepper;
1/3	c	Mushrooms; sliced fresh
1	tb	Pimiento; chopped

* This product is load with sodium. I would try find a good substitute for those diabetics who must restrict the their sodium intake. I don't have to, I have not used sodium for years and years. Any recipe that calls for salt, I'll leave out. (Bert will eat brussels sprouts.)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook brussels sprouts in small amount of unsalted water just until thawed. Drain. Arrange sprouts in shallow baking dish. Combine 4 tablespoon of Butter Buds, vinegar, sugar or (sugar sub), tarragon, marjoram, and pepper in blender container. Cover and process on medium speed a few seconds. Combine remaining Butter Buds, mushrooms and pimineto. Sprinkle over sprouts. Bake, covered, about 15 minutes, or until are tender.
