Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Onions
I love vegetables and depending on the season, I take advantage of what Mother Nature has to offer. By late fall and through the winter, there’s a vegetable that David and I really enjoy and it’s Brussels sprouts! During the Holidays 🎄, it’s something I like serving with my turkey dinner.
There are a few different ways to serve these little guys; steamed, sautéed or baked. I also like to grate them raw when I make my Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad. It’s a great winter salad 🥗 to have!
Here’s another recipe I enjoy them in too and it’s my Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Onions! The combination of ingredients gives such a delicious taste to these little guys. it’s a tasty casserole to serve along with most proteins. It’s quick plus super easy to make 👩🍳👨🍳.
As Brussels sprouts are now available at your supermarket, you can buy them either loose or on a stalk. I prefer buying them on a stalk for a couple of reasons. First, I know they are fresh and second, I get more for my money 💰. The stalk can look intimidating but don’t worry because it’s quite easy to handle. If you’re not too sure, check out this quick tutorial video on Handling & Prepping a Brussels Sprouts Stalk…
This Brussels sprouts with Bacon and Onions recipe is a great side dish to have in your folder. As the Holidays are approaching, this dish will be served along with my turkey dinner 🦃 but I also enjoy accompanying it with my salisbury steak, Mediterranean leg of lamb as well as with some grilled chicken breasts.
If some of you or other family members are not too fond 😕 of these little green vegetables, this Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Onions recipe is a good way to give them a second chance. You’ll be surprised how amazingly delicious these healthy vegetables can be!
