It's a real treat and will convince even the pickiest eater to love Brussels sprouts! Be sure to check out our tips below for the best results.
Tips:
When choosing sprouts, look for light green shoots without brown spots or yellow leaves. Small sprouts are a good choice as they become less bitter when cooked. Larger sprouts can become slightly bitter and taste more like cabbage.
You can also go beyond simple salt and pepper and season Brussels sprouts with red pepper flakes, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, or taco seasoning.
Ribbed bacon is best for packaging.
Don't cut the Brussels sprouts in half; they're best roasted whole. This will give the bacon time to cook completely.
