Crispy Honey Mustard Brussels Sprouts with Bacon

Ingredients

1 pound bacon

2 pounds fresh brussels sprouts

1/4 cup olive oil

3 Tablespoons honey

1 1/2 Tablespoons dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Start oven or smoker to 425 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with foil

Chop and sautee bacon in a skillet

Wash brussels sprouts and gently dry with paper towels. Cut off the ends of the Brussels sprouts then slice them in half. (I chopped the broccoli). Discard of any loose outer leaves that fall off. Place brussels sprouts in a large bowl and set aside.

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, dijon, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk well to combine.

Pour over brussels sprouts, add the cooked bacon and toss well to coat.

Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then increase oven to 475 degrees and continue baking for 10 minutes!

Remove from oven. Place the cooked brussels sprouts in a large bowl and add the bacon. Toss to coat.

Taste the roasted brussels sprouts and season with salt and pepper, if needed. Serve warm!
