I use fresh brussel sprouts, steamed first and then sauteed with everything else. My kids normally turn their noses up at brussel sprouts, but they really do like them prepared this way.

These are so good! If I am lazy I chop the bacon before cooking and when the bacon is almost done I throw in the shallots (or onion) until tender and then add the brussels. I do not drain the bacon grease. Sometimes I serve the brussels with shredded parm and drizzled balsamic vinegar. YUM! Great recipe!

Didn't have any shallots/onions on hand, but sauteed the fresh brussels I picked up for the same amount of time and DEVOURED them! SO yummy, will definitely be adding to the rotation!

I've been looking new vegetables to add in my rotation. These were pretty good. I skipped the olive oil and used just a dash of the bacon grease. I also used regular onion and I added a clove of minced garlic. This was a very good cooking method; the brussels turned out soft, flavorful, and not bitter at all. I think next time I may totally skip the bacon and see how that turns out.

We use the bacon grease w/ the olive (or coconut oil we had on hand) and then saute brussels sprouts. Very good & will make again.

absolutely fabulous! personally i love brussel sprouts so it was no stretch to think i would love these as well :) i nixed the onion (i didn't plan ahead & didn't have any!), added one minced clove of garlic & used the bacon grease instead of oil. i will most definitely make this one again.

I think these are delicious. I have made them 2 times in the past month. I have used fresh and frozen brussels and I definitely like the texture from the fresh. They tend to hold their cruch and form better than the frozen. Definitely a keeper.
