    I haven't tried with pine nuts but it sounds good! I do saute in garlic and evoo, but only difference is that I slice the sprouts first. Growing up my mother boiled the living sh** out of them and they tasted awful...ha!

    Great job, Dave! You're making me hungry. I've made something similar but without the pine nuts. I can't wait to try your version. *hugs* and thanks! =)
