This Caramelized Brussels Sprouts With Bacon dish is beyond delicious!

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.

Life update. ❤ I’ll be keeping this piece of Life update. ❤

I’ll be keeping this piece of art forever. Wyatt painted this for me back in January, when I was isolated with Covid. I taped it up on the wall beside the bed during my stay in our guest room. If you zoom in, you’ll see me in the front with the big baby belly. (Wyatt calls me ‘big belly’ these days!)

Rainbows represent promise, hope, and new beginnings. 

It's been a rough past few weeks for our family, hence my absence online. Thank you so much for your messages of love, concern, and support. They mean so much to us. I know I share a lot with you on here, but I’m not going to get into details this time. Just know we're doing alright. Junebug is great (and kicking and rolling around non-stop!), Wyatt is awesome per usual, and Ryan and I are rock solid.

I had to take a break from work. My main focus has always been (and will
always be) protecting the peace, health, and well-being of our family unit. 

Social media can be a beautiful place where connection and inspiration happens. Unfortunately, it can also foster hurtful and harmful attacks. I’ve learned so much over these past few weeks, and have deeply reflected on my presence and future plans online. I’ll share more soon, but for now, I just wanted to check in, say a sincere thanks, and let you know we’re all good. ❤️

🤰I’m playing catchup on some pregnancy blog posts but I wanted to make sure this was up, especially for those who have been following our journey.

❔️Please ask any questions. That’s the whole reason why I share about this. I believe sharing our experiences and personal stories helps all of us feel less alone and often validates what we’re going through. 

(If you can believe it, I took a video of the exact moment I found out but it disappeared from my files. Poof! Gone.💨 Of all the videos to lose…. 🙈 But very happy to have this photo).
