Brussel sprouts are the perfect side dish for any meal! Check out these 2 easy and tasty ways to cook them!

Did anyone else used to HATE Brussel sprouts? 🙋🏻♀️
Well... I've been converted... I just realized I hated steamed or boiled Brussels... now I LOVE them! Either oven-roasted or panfried. So simple:
1. Panfry: Cook bacon in a large pan on medium-high heat (yes... I add 🥓 to A LOT!), remove grease and chop. Melt butter in the pan, add onions and Brussel sprouts and cook until golden brown (~ 10 mins). Season with salt and pepper to taste and add bacon. Then for that extra special... drizzle some balsamic vinegar.
2. Oven-Baked (as per the photo above)... so easy. Trim ends off the Brussels, toss in olive oil and salt/pepper. Grate fresh parmesan on top. Put them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and roast at 400 (35-40 mins) until crispy. Voila!
