brussels sprouts with bacon

Few people ever get past that first bland experience with Brussels sprouts. Unseasoned, unloved little mini-cabbages. So very, very wrong! It’s no wonder this lovely morsel is among the most loved vegetable of most every famous chef! Why.. you wonder, would they ever love a Brussels sprout? Because they know how to make them so dang tasty, you could literally make a meal of just a beautiful plate of Brussels (especially Brussels Sprouts with Bacon) and a glass of wine. Nothing else required! (I have… and was in heaven…Brussels Heaven!)

First, you need a pan big enough to sautee but not steam the little beauties. A crowded pan won’t allow the sprouts to brown and the brown=YUM! Bacon (or pancetta) adds a smoky goodness (but we all already know that, right?) and seasoning them well is the last must-do! So even if you are a sworn Brussels-hater… give them one last shot!

You won’t regret it!
