Roasted vegetables are so much tastier than boiled!

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ lbs Brussels sprouts
• 2 – 3 Tab butter or bacon fat, melted
• 4 slices bacon, diced
• salt and pepper
• balsamic vinegar

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Trim the ends and outer leave from the Brussels sprouts.
3. Cut the sprouts in half.
4. Toss them with the melted butter/bacon fat and salt and pepper.
5. Dump them on a foil lined baking sheet, making sure to keep everything one layer.
6. Sprinkle the diced bacon over everything.
7. Pop them in the oven.
8. The sprouts take about 30 – 35 minutes to roast, so set your timer for 10 minutes and rotate and flip the sprouts 3 times
9. Drizzle with vinegar to finish the dish.

Serves: 4 – 6
