Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lbs Brussel Sprouts rinsed
  • 3 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper
  • 6 Slices Bacon high quality center cut
  • 1 Pomegranate or ¾ cup Pomegranate Arils
  • ¼ cup Hazelnuts peeled and sliced in half

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Cut off the brown ends of the Brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. I usually slice some in half and keep others whole.
  • Mix them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Shake the pan from time to time to cook them evenly.
  • While roasting, cook bacon until nice and crispy and cut into pieces.
  • Sprinkle brussels sprouts with bacon, pomegranate arils, and hazelnuts. Sprinkle with extra salt, as needed. Serve immediately.
