ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON & ONIONS FOR TWO



Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon & Onions for Two image

Hearty Brussels sprouts pair nicely with salty bacon and onions in this quick Thanksgiving side dish for two. A sweet balsamic glaze makes a nice complement drizzled over the top, but it's not necessary to enjoy this classic combo. For a twist on this recipe, try swapping pancetta for the bacon. If you want to have leftovers, this recipe is easily doubled.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS W/ONIONS-BACON & BALSAMIC GLAZE image

I got the basic ingredients for this recipe from a Holiday cookbook, and added onions to add additional flavor. It was a perfect side dish to accompany the Thanksgiving Turkey and Cheesy Green Bean Casserole. It is quite simple yet tasty, the bacon adds a bit of crunch and the Balsamic Glaze adds an extra dimension of flavor....
