Bacon and Brussels Sprout Salad

Bacon and Brussel Sprout Salad with a Bacon Vinaigrette

I’m definitely torn on brussels sprouts. I don’t particularly care for them. But sometimes, if done right, I love them. This salad is brussels sprouts done right! We can probably credit the bacon for that!

Ingredients

Brussels Sprouts
Bacon
White Wine Vinegar
1 Whole Lemon Juiced
Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper
Olive Oil (Optional)

First step is to blanch the BRUSSELS SPROUTS for 1 minute. Place in fridge and allow to cool. Once the BRUSSEL SPROUTS are cooled, slice them very thinly.

Next you will want to fry the BACON. I find chopping the bacon before frying will result in the most evenly fried bacon. Once the BACON is fried, add the BACON to the BRUSSELS SPROUTS with some of the hot BACON GREASE.

For the Vinaigrette, hold on to some BACON GREASE and mix in a bowl with equal parts WHITE WINE VINEGAR and OLIVE OIL (optional) and GARLIC POWDER, SALT, and PEPPER to taste. Combine with the BRUSSELS SPROUTS and BACON and mix thoroughly. EAT!
