This was one of the recipes prepared on the 50th episode of the Chef and the Dietician, right at the end of the piece.
I put it together today, and BOY is it ever yummy!

the link goes to the video, and it is the last recipe. All of the whole feast looks just yummy. I shall make the twice baked sweet potatoes and the not-tuna salad AND the maple glazed brussels sprouts for my Thanksgiving feast.
1/2 c fine diced onion or shallot (I used red onion)
1/4 c maple syrup
1 T dijon mustard
1 T cornstarch/arrowroot
1 T soy sauce
1 lb blanched brussels sprouts
saute the onion over medium high heat until it is soft and browning
meanwhile, combine the syrup, cornstarch, soy sauce and mustard and whisk to smooth out the cornstarch.
Add syrup mixture to onion in skillet, then put in the blanched brussels sprouts and heat through.
YUM!
Next time I make this, I'll use a whole cup of minced onion because it adds a yummy savory flavor to it.
I always trim the ends of my brussels sprouts, and cut the larger ones in half lengthwise for uniformity of size. Also, cutting in half opens up the brussels sprouts to crisping (when roasting) or just capturing the yummy glaze
Good stuff, Maynard!
