BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it generously. Trim the bottom end of the Brussels sprouts, leaving the core intact, and pull off the outer dark leaves. Halve through the core. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook, uncovered, until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold running water. (This can be done a day ahead.)
• Meanwhile, put the oil and bacon in a very large skillet or stewpot, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the Brussels sprouts and cook, stirring occasionally, until they brown and the edges get crisp, about 10 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, salt, pepper, and bacon. Serve warm.

OVEN ROASTED SWEET POTATOES AND ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Trim your Brussels by cutting off the little brown end. If there are any yellow leaves, pull them off. Cut any large ones in half. Add to a large bowl.
• Peel your sweet potato and chop into 1-2 inch pieces. Add to the large bowl.
• Smash 2 cloves of garlic and add it to the bowl.
• Pour 1/3 cup olive oil over the vegetables.
• Add cumin, garlic salt, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir to coat.
• (Line a large sheet pan with foil if you want super easy cleanup)
• Drizzle a little olive oil onto the sheet pan and rub it all over the pan (or foil) with your hand. Or you could spray it really well with nonstick spray.
• Pour the veggies onto the pan.
• Roast at 400 for about 40-45 minutes. The veggies are done when they are brown and a fork slides into them easily.
• Place the veggies in a serving bowl and toss with 1-2 tablespoons red wine vinegar to taste. Garnish with fresh thyme if you want. Eat hot!

HOW TO COOK BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Tip the sprouts into a pan and add a couple of cm water and a pinch of salt - a large pan works better so they're not piled up too high. Cover and bring the water to the boil, turn down to a simmer and cook with the lid on for 3- 5 mins depending on size.
• Test with a sharp knife to see if they are cooked through. If not, cook for a little longer and test again.
• Drain and tip the sprouts into a bowl. Serve with a knob of butter, if you wish.
