BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON, PECANS, AND CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Slice all Brussels sprouts in half.
• In a medium bowl, combine halved Brussels sprouts, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and toss to combine.
• Place Brussels sprouts on the baking sheet, cut side down.
• Roast in the oven at 400 F for about 25 minutes. During the last 5-10 minutes of roasting, turn them over for even browning, the cut sides should be partially charred but not blackened.
• Line the separate baking sheet with foil. Add the bacon slices in one layer. Bake in the preheated oven at 400 F for about 20 minutes or until the bacon is done. You can do it at the same time as roasting the Brussels sprouts.
• Drain bacon of fat and slice the bacon into small bites.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Add pecans in one layer.
• Toast the pecans for about 5 minutes (maybe a bit longer) in the preheated oven at 350 F until they get darker in color.
• For best results, briefly soak the dried cranberries in hot water. Bring a small pot of water to boil.
• Add dried cranberries to a medium bowl. Pour hot water over the cranberries and soak them for about 10 minutes. Drain.
• In a large bowl, combine roasted Brussels sprouts, warm chopped cooked bacon, toasted pecans, and soaked dried cranberries. Toss everything together. The olive oil from Brussels sprouts and fats from bacon should be enough to coat the ingredients. If desired, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to mix with the salad (optional).
