About
Shredded Brussels Sprout With Bacon, Cranberries + Brown Sugar
Brussels sprouts are in the cruciferous category of vegetables, which also includes cabbage and broccoli. Health-wise, these little guys are low in calories and fat, they are high dietary fiber and contain 20 essential vitamins and minerals, making them a preferred vegetable for me. Crispy salty bacon, cranberries and pecans mixed with a touch a sweetness, blend together nicely making this a hearty side dish that you can enjoy hot or at room temperature. This shredded Brussels sprout recipe makes a great side dish at any meal and is perfect for holiday time, as it highlights many wonderful autumn and winter ingredients.
