Brussels Sprouts


Owen begged for "more Brussels" (accompanied by the sign for more) when I made these Tuesday night, so we had them again tonight. He still likes them. This is not a real recipe; the amounts are all approximate.


Brussels Sprouts With Bacon and Onions

8 pieces of bacon
1/2 small onion
quart of Brussels Sprouts
balsamic vinegar

Cut bacon into ~1" pieces and brown. Add onion as bacon begins to brown slightly. While bacon and onion are cooking, wash and trim sprouts and cut them into 1/4's. Add them to the bacon and onions. Cover and cook until sprouts have reached desired tenderness (about 10 minutes for us), stirring once or twice. Dress with balsamic vinegar if desired.
