These Bacon Brussel Sprouts are now my favorite side dish, I can’t believe I didn’t try them earlier. The first time I made them was last Christmas and everyone was asking me for the recipe.
Since then I have made them numerous times, because there just so darn good to only enjoy once a year. I like to eat them on their own most of the time as opposed to a side dish.
However they work very very well as a side dish, think Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Not only are they super delicious their also very filling. Those little brussels are packed full of fiber and the bacon has a significant amount of protein and fat. So go ahead and indulge!
They don’t take that long to make either, I like to cook them directly on the stove top this way they pick up all the flavor from the cooked bacon. Making this a true one pot dish, that anyone can prepare in less than 30 minutes.
Prep is pretty easy, simply wash and trim off the bad ends of the brussel sprouts. Then slice them in half, and set aside while you saute the bacon. Once the bacon is cooked, add in the brussel sprouts, seasonings and saute in the same pan till their done.
Be certain to purchase a good quality bacon, you don’t want a ton of fat in it. Because you will be frying the sprouts in the leftover bacon fat, now don’t frown now. My bacon gives off about 1 tbsp of fat, it’s that lean. This step really enhances the flavor of the whole dish, so I recommend you give it try before you knock it. However you can drain all the fat if desired, just be sure to still saute the brussels in the same pan as the bacon was cooked. I hope you enjoy!
Yum Brussel Sprouts never tasted so good!
Start by washing the Brussel Sprouts, cut off the rough ends then slice lengthwise and set aside.

Add in the Red Wine Vinegar last
I tend to eat these for dinner frequently, however they really should be shared.

This super simple to make Balsamic Rosemary Pork Tenderloin will save you from cooking in the kitchen all day.
Wanting to serve this with some rice or potatoes? Feel free to add 1/2 cup of chicken stock to this recipe and that will create more of a broth at the end.
I saw a similar recipe done by Rachel Ray a while back and knew it was only a matter of time before I gave it a go!
Paired this delicious tenderloin with a bunch of brussel sprouts, they go great well with balsamic vinegar.
You can always try asparagus, carrots or potatoes as well.
There really is not much too it, your basically seasoning the tenderloin and then stuffing it with some fresh garlic and rosemary.
Then drizzling more olive oil over top and balsamic vinegar which helps to caramelize the meat.
Then place into a oven safe dish and baking it along with your favorite vegetable of choice.
Easy peezie weeknight dinner that can easily feed a family of 3.

These Baked Sweet Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts are tender sweet and savory all at once. Made with a few simple ingredients that you are sure to love.
I was looking to make a hearty vegetable side dish that I could pack into some meal preps for the week ahead.
And that is when I came across this “Brussel Sprout” tree. Isn’t it Amazing!!
I stood there and pondered what can I make for my readers that I have not already made with brussels?
And that is when I saw the yams and was like UHA!
You can serve these yam and Brussel sprouts with just about any meal, however they do work very very well as a side dish, think Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.
HOW TO MAKE BAKED SWEET POTATOES AND BRUSSEL SPROUTS
Your going to want to start by washing, peeling and dicing the yams.
Same with the brussels sprouts, however I left my whole you can dice them as well if you desire.
Next toss them in a large bowl with your cooking oil of choice and season generously before baking in the oven on a large baking sheet at 400 f for 35 minutes.

This is my take on Kung Pao Chicken, traditionally peanuts are used in this dish and most definitely you can use those instead of the cashews.
Personally I much prefer cashews so that is why I have used them here. Kung Pao Chicken with Brussel Sprouts work so well together, and it’s a nice way to get in some extra fiber.
For this recipe today, I am using a skinless chicken breasts along with brussel sprouts, green onions and cashews.
You can use whatever vegetables you have on hand, such as red or green peppers, snow peas, broccoli etc.
If your wanting to serve more than 4 people, simply adjust the recipe with our easy to use serving adjuster.
An easy and healthy stir fry that anyone can make in under 30 minutes, the hardest part is washing and chopping the ingredients.
Serve over a bed of jasmine rice if desired I hope you enjoy this healthier version of Kung Pao.
MEAL PREP IDEA: Make enough to create a few meal preps bowls for the week ahead. Or have dinner for two with this recipe, and then create two meal prep bowls for the week ahead.
To make the bowls, simply place jasmine rice on the bottom and top with the Kung Pao Chicken with Brussel Sprouts. Want more preps? Simply double up the recipe with my easy to use recipe adjuster above.
