A Quick Keto Favorite!
Our family was coming over to celebrate Father’s day one weekend and we decided the number of people coming needed some take-out rather than a fully home-cooked meal. We really wanted to make something special anyway to treat our guests. We ordered plates for everyone from our favorite Turkish place, Tacy’s Beyti, but whipped up something quick for everyone to enjoy with their gyros. We made a giant Grilled Halloumi Salad (everyone thought the cheese was grilled chicken!), these delicious roasted Brussels sprouts, and creamy, heavenly chocolate truffles for dessert!
Roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon are so easy to make with only 2 basic ingredients! They pair very well with meats and are a favorite during Thanksgiving! You can play around with the ratio of sprouts to bacon depending on everyone’s liking. We like to use 2 strips per person, but it can easily be 1 or even 3! You can also make these in advance and then reheat them in the oven until warm.
Enjoy!

- Preheat the oven to 375°F and cut the ends off of each brussels sprout, it's too tough. Then cut each in half, or even in quarters if they're very big.
- Throw them in a deep bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper and any other spices you like. We sometimes toss them in red pepper and cumin!
- Pour them out onto a greased baking sheet making sure to leave a little bit a room between them. They don't all need to be on the same side, they'll all roast up nicely even if they look messy on that sheet.
- Place the baking sheet into the oven and bake for about 30 minutes. Halfway through, reach in to the oven and give the baking sheet a good shake so that the brussels sprouts rotate a little.
- While the brussels sprouts are baking, fry up as much bacon as you'd like. We use 2 pieces for each person we're feeding.
- When the bacon is cooked to your liking, chop it up into small pieces, roughly a half inch big, You want them bite sized.
- When the brussels sprouts have shriveled a bit and blackened, they're ready! Take them out of the oven and toss them in the same deep bowl with the bacon bits.
- Serve onto plates and give one last sprinkle of salt! Enjoy!

What temp do you bake at?
Anywhere between 350-400°F. We like our Brussels sprouts extra crispy so we throw them in at 400°F, but some people like them just a bit softer.
