Most people LOVE broccoli in Chinese food. It's almost like...."there's BROCCOLI in there??"
Most people dont like Brussel Sprouts because they are usually served steamed (YUCK). Serve them in a shallow bowl with Basil/Garlic/Lemon Butter Sauce...or better yet a garlic & shallots white sauce with freshly ground white pepper.
While serving veggies raw is the healthiest--most folks just steam them...and just steamed is boring and tasteless, and does no one any health benifits if no one eats them.
Sometimes an tasty homeade sauce can be just the right trick!
