Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Crispy {Turkey} Bacon Bits

brussels with bacon bits

I whipped up a simple “Healthified American Dinner” on Monday night
for me and my husband and it was quite the meal.

His fave was this:

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Crispy {Turkey} Bacon Bits
Ingredients:

– brussels sprouts (1 handful per person)
– garlic (2 cloves per person)
organic turkey bacon (1 piece per person)
– oil (olive oil or grapeseed oil)
sea salt (1/4 tsp per person)

Directions:
1. Wash brussels sprouts, pat dry and slice off the bottom stem that sort of sticks out
2. Place in a baking dish (I like to rim it with parchment paper so it doesnt stick)
2. Drizzle with oil and sea salt and add some sliced garlic
3. Dice up bacon and add on top of brussels
4. Bake for approx 20 minute until cooked through and a tad soft
5. Broil on high for 2 minutes to make the turkey bacon bits crispy and to brown the tops of the brussels for crispiness.
Voila!

If you’re a vegetarian, omit the turkey bacon and add some chipotle for a bacon-y flavor!

This dish goes great with these dishes:
Salad- Chopped Swiss Chard with Avocado, Roasted Red Peppers and Pumpkin Seeds
Entree- Dijon Salmon
Side- Crispy Potato Chips

be intrigued. be impressed. be well.

be well,
