Bacon Brussel Sprouts

Here's an easy weeknight side dish for you. Goes well with just about any meat. It can be a nice compliment to some simple grilled chicken.

Bacon Brussel Sprouts

2 pounds brussel sprouts (fresh), halved or cubed

5 slices bacon (I used thick sliced bacon)

2-3 TBSP Herbs de Provence

Prep the brussel sprouts (cube or halve them). 

Cook the bacon in a large frying pan...when it's all cooked take it out and put it on a plate to cool. When it cools break the bacon up in the chunks.

Cook the sprouts in the bcaon fat...yum.

When the sprouts are cooked (soft to the touch, but still firm), add the herbs and bacon, stir.  

Brussel sprouts are thought to prevent cancer-- so eat up and enjoy!
