Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon-1Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon

The first time I made this dish, I almost ate the entire bowl! It is SO good! The recipe comes straight from Freson Bros. Chef Alexei (Top Chef Canada). Freson Bros. is opening up it’s first Edmonton location in Rabbit Hill in March 2021. For now, we shop at their newest (and absolutely stunning) store in Fort Saskatchewan and often pop out to their Stony Plain location as well. They also have a dozen other stores in communities across the province.

If you find most of the side dishes at Thanksgiving to be quite heavy, this would be a nice one to add to the mix. It’s beautifully balanced between the bacon and the fresh lemon, and I have yet to meet a single person that doesn’t love this dish from the very first bite!

Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon-2

You’ll Need:

  • 4 slices of Banj’s Bacon cut crosswise into 1 cm pieces
  • 2 tsp. Canola oil
  • 2 lbs Brussel sprouts, shaved thin
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice (approx 1 lemon)
  • 2 cups Grana Padano Parmesan, finely grated
  • Salt and pepper

Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon-3Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon-4Directions:

  • In a large pot, render the bacon until crispy, and remove from pan, leaving the fat in the pan.
  • Add the canola oil to the bacon fat in the pot and heat on high until almost smoking.
  • Add shredded Brussels Sprouts, and stir vigorously with a wooden spoon for 2-3 minutes. They will sizzle and pop; this is why you are using a large pot.

Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon-5

  • Remove from heat and return bacon to the pot.
  • Add lemon juice and sprinkle in Grana Padano while stirring, reserving a little for garnish.
  • Taste and correct seasoning with salt and pepper. Garnish with reserved Grana Padano.
  • Serve immediately.

First time going to Disney? We got so much great a First time going to Disney? We got so much great advice and awesome tips for how to maximize our first time at the park as a family.

➡️ The number one thing I want to pass along is to allow breathing room in your days there. Don't overplan it. Try not to be SO scheduled that you miss the magic. ✨️

Of course you want to have a general plan of the rides you want to hit, your strategy for tackling the pack, etc. but leave space so when suddenly Goofy is walking down the street and your kiddo wants a photo - you have time. 

➡️ Book your hotel and park passes ahead of time for sure. Reserve a character dinner too (we booked ours the day before and got the last spot). 

There are a lot of to-the-minute schedules you'll find out there for how to hit every ride and try all the food in record time but for a family with young kids, I don't recommend it. Just go with the flow and have fun! 🤗

➡️ Make sure to head a few reels back and see how we surprised our seven-year-old with the trip! Ask any questions below. ❤️ Like and save this post if it was helpful for you.

More Disney tips coming to my Reels feed and KariSkelton.com this week!
