THE BEST ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS RECIPE

These are the BEST roasted brussel sprouts ever! Made with just 5 ingredients including crispy bacon, it’s an easy brussel sprouts recipe that’s the perfect side dish for any night of the week (but also fancy enough for a Holiday dinner).

I can only imagine the chaos every Christmas Dinner hostess/host is faced with on this beautiful Sunday. There’s two days left. Two! Some of you are probably hosting a Christmas Eve Party, as well, and you have just a day. One day.

On top of all that, you have to deal with those questions in your head that won’t leave you alone; do I have enough, do I need more ham, can I get away with two desserts, the MIL better not try to get away with store-bought pie… So many thoughts, so little time.

Go ahead, take a sip of that spiked apple cider next to you…

I wanted to help you out with a side dish of Roasted Brussels Sprouts. An extra side dish is one of those things that you always need plenty of, but have a hard time figuring out how to make it different.

I was first introduced to brussels sprouts at my aunt’s Christmas Dinner few years back. They were steamed and seasoned with salt and pepper. I didn’t fall in love with them right away. Sadly, it took me a good ten or twenty tries before I finally said, oh yeah, gimme more.

The secret to finally falling in love? Bacon. And the oven. That.is.all

HOW TO MAKE ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON

Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl; brussels sprouts, bacon, salt, pepper and olive oil, and toss to coat evenly.

Transfer it all on a baking sheet and pop it in the oven for 35 ish minutes.

That’s it!

Lesson(s) learned: Roasted veggies rock. Bacon makes everything better, and Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon are my absolute favorite side dish.

  1. Sounds wonderful, but seems odd that the picture is misleading in that it leads you to believe that the dish is prepared on top of the stove in a skillet 🙂

    I made these tonight! There were awesome. First time preparing brussel sprouts and it was amazing!

  3. I just made this tonight. Yummy! Will definitely make it again. I was pleased that the bacon crisped up in the oven. Thanks!

      Thank you, Mary!! That’s what I like the most about this dish… the crispy bacon! 😉

  4. This sounds great… Do you need to cook the bacon before putting it on the baking sheet? Thank you.

      Hi Susan!
      No, there’s no need to cook the bacon. In fact, because of the bacon’s juices released during the roasting process, this dish tastes that much better. Everything is better with bacon! 😉
      Thank you SO much for stopping by!

  5. I love brussel sprouts…and roasting them with bacon is perhaps my favorite way to enjoy them! Hoping you are have a Merry Christmas!

    My mother in law made a similar dish for Thanksgiving this year and all I have to say is I literally ate the whole thing and made sure to take all leftovers to eat the rest of the week! What a spectacular idea! Love + Shine CourtStar
