Description

Serve your family a super simple and scrumptious side dish that's good for everyday or even holiday meals. If you can't find the frozen shaved Brussels sprouts, simply slice fresh ones and be sure to have 9 oz. total when finished.

• 9 oz. bag frozen Green Giant shaved/sliced Brussels sprouts
• drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
• salt, to taste

Steps

1. Place bacon in a large 12 inch skillet; fry bacon on medium heat; when bacon begins to sizzle, add Brussels sprouts and a drizzle of oil; saute, stirring occasionally, until both the Brussels sprouts and bacon are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
2. Add garlic; saute for 1 minute or until very fragrant. Add maple syrup; stir to coat. Season to taste, adding more salt, pepper, and/or maple syrup, if desired.
