oven-roasted bacon parmesan brussels sprouts

Cook Time 20 minutes minutes

Servings 4

Author allerGenefriendly

Ingredients

• 1 lb. brussels sprouts (washed & dried)
• 4 pieces bacon* (cut into pieces)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp garlic salt

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Trim the ends off of the brussels sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise. If you have large brussels sprouts, you may need to cut them into thirds.
• Combine all ingredients into a bowl and mix well with your hands.
• Place the halved brussels sprouts on the parchment paper face down, evenly spaced. (Discard any leaves that fall off during mixing- if you bake them, they will burn.)
• Sprinkle the bacon pieces on the lined baking sheet.
• Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes.
• Remove, let cool, and enjoy!

Notes

*We use 'already-cooked microwaveable bacon'- This allows it to get extra crispy in the oven.
