maple, bacon brussel sprouts


Brussel sprouts... One of those foods you dread and despise without even having eaten them. Well, after tasting these tasty little morsels, they'll be moved over to your "vegetables I love" list. Not necessarily the healthiest veggie dish, but a nice alternative to the go-to typical choices. 


How to Make:
3 cup of brussel sprouts 
3 tbsp of maple syrup
3 tbsp butter
4-6 slices of bacon
salt & pepper to taste
1. Wash brussel sprouts and cut into quarters. 
2. Cut bacon strips into smaller pieces. Fry until crispy. Take out of pan, set aside.
3. Using half of the bacon drippings, add in butter and melt. Stir in brussel sprouts. 
4. Let sprouts brown a little bit and stir in maple syrup. Let syrup reduce and thicken. 
5. Finally, add the crisp bacon back into pan. Stir and combine. Serve.
