YUMMY BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON & ONION



Yummy Brussels Sprouts With Bacon & Onion image

I came up with this myself. Since brussels sprouts have a similar flavor to cabbage, I have adapted my cabbage recipe for them. My husband thought he did not like brussels sprouts until I made these. I usually have to do a double batch and we end up fighting over the leftovers!!!

Tips:

  • Selecting Brussels Sprouts: Choose firm, compact Brussels sprouts with tightly closed leaves. Avoid any with yellowing or wilted leaves.
  • Trimming Brussels Sprouts: Trim the stem end of each Brussels sprout and remove any outer leaves that are damaged or discolored.
  • Slicing Brussels Sprouts: For smaller Brussels sprouts, slice them in half lengthwise. For larger ones, cut them into quarters.
  • Cooking Brussels Sprouts: Brussels sprouts can be roasted, sautéed, steamed, or grilled. Roasting brings out their nutty flavor, while sautéing gives them a slightly crispy texture. Steaming preserves their nutrients, and grilling adds a smoky flavor.
  • Adding Flavor: To enhance the flavor of Brussels sprouts, try adding ingredients like bacon, onions, garlic, nuts, or cheese. You can also season them with salt, pepper, herbs, or spices.

Conclusion:

Brussels sprouts are a versatile vegetable that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you roast them, sauté them, steam them, or grill them, they are sure to be a hit. With their nutty flavor and slightly crunchy texture, Brussels sprouts are a great addition to any meal. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give Brussels sprouts a try!
