Maple Bacon Brussels Sprouts
These are fucking delicious! They are one of Traci’s favorite, and when ever I make them she reminds me about 20 times an hour about how much she likes them. They’re so good, that we have to make them with the large 2 pound Costco bag of them if we want to have any leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day. Sometimes, instead of having them as a side dish, we just make them to have as out main course.
The way the flavor of the maple melds with the bacon and caramelizes the brussel sprouts, mmmmm… Sorry, let me wipe this drool off my face. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!
