Bacon, Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash Salad Recipe

By -Tam | Food Apparel 1 Comment

Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Butternut Squash with BaconMy dad is a Brussels sprouts kind of man.  He will eat them just about any way you serve them.  He use to feed them to me as a kid frozen and nuked.  That did not go over so well for me.

Trying to step outside of my childish pickiness, I decided to whip up a roasted Brussels sprouts recipe courtesy of the ever famous Ina Garten.   You see, my brother-in-law is also an avid Brussels man.  I figured, shoot 5 star review recipe, let’s do this.  Nope, had to choke down every bite.

Go to round three at another dinner party.  Threw a few on my plate trying to be polite to the host.  Bam! He nailed it.  I had to go back for seconds.  His secret?  Bacon.

This salad is seriously nutritious, yet manly.  Meaning the husband will eat it as comfort food no problem.  What more can you ask for?
