BACON ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
• While the oven heats, cut off and discard the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts . Remove the darker outer leaves (you can discard these, or save them to use in Seared Brussels Sprout Leaves ). Cut extra larger sprouts in half so that the veggies cook evenly. Put the prepared sprouts in a roasting pan.
• Peel the garlic cloves and cut them into 2 to 4 pieces each depending on the size. The number of cloves will depend on their size and how garlicky you'd like your Brussels sprouts. Scatter the garlic over the brussels sprouts.
• Cut the bacon into small pieces and scatter over the Brussels sprouts.
• Cover the roasting pan with foil and cook about 20 minutes, or until the bacon just starts to render its fat and the sprouts are a bit tender. Remove the foil, toss everything around a bit, and continue roasting until the Brussels sprouts are tender, the bacon is browned, and the garlic is tender and browned, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Taste and sprinkle with salt if needed (some kinds of bacon are saltier than others). Serve the Brussels sprouts hot and enjoy!
