Brussel sprouts are by far my favorite vegetable. My Husband and I call them baby cabbage, just like a standard cabbage but bite-sized. I remember buying them for the first time 4 years ago at a farmer’s market telling myself to give them a try and I’m so glad I did! I look forward towards the last weeks of the CSA because that’s when Brussel sprouts are in season. I love that we get them on the stalk and straight from the farm!
Brussel sprouts are simply delicious when they are roasted. Below is a link to an easy recipe.
Besides loving Brussel Sprouts, I also love BACON! I decided one time to put them together and let me tell you how delicious they are!!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Wash the Brussel Sprouts and trim the ends
Cut the Brussel sprouts in half
Get a pack of bacon and cut them in half
Take each slice of bacon and wrap it around a halved Brussel sprout
Place them in a single layer in a baking sheet, no need to grease.
The bacon has enough grease!
Bake in oven for about 30 minutes (I check periodically, usually when the bacon looks like its cooked through, takes me about 30 min)
Cool and enjoy!
