SAUTEED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Brussels sprouts are wonderful, but they are an acquired taste for some due to their slightly bitter flavor. This dish is perfect way to make Brussels sprouts accessible to almost anyone – the bacon provides a smoky salty touch, contrasted by sweetness from the onions and cranberries, resulting in an excellent mix of flavors.

This is a perfect side dish for the holidays, and is generally just great throughout the winter.

2. • ½ large onion, thinly sliced to make half rings
3. • ¼ cup of raw almond, roughly chopped
4. • 3 thick slices of bacon, cut into ½ inch small strips
5. • 14 oz. (400 grams) of Brussels sprouts, washed and cleaned. Cut the base off of each sprout and cut in half along the stem.

Instructions

1. 1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet and sauté the onions until translucent; add the almonds and sauté until the almonds are slightly browned. Set aside.
