This dish has become quite popular, making the rounds on Pinterest, and with good reason: it is unbelievably delicious. The brussels sprouts are roasted to a crispy perfection, and the sweet balsamic is perfectly rounded out by the salty parmesan and bacon. While this is a side dish, it is easy to eat this dish alone, just try not to gorge yourself!
Vegan and Gluten Free Bacon Balsamic Brussels Sprouts with Parmesan Cheese
1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half
Vegan and gluten free bacon, we love Phony Baloney
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon syrupy balsamic vinegar, we love Fattoria Estense Gold Label
Vegan and gluten free parmesan, we love Parmelas
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
On a baking sheet, toss the brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt and pepper. Lay out in a single layer and roast for 20 to 30 minutes, tossing halfway through. You’ll know they’re ready when they’re browned and crispy. Once done, toss with bacon and the balsamic. Top whole thing with parmesan cheese. Serve while still hot.
This dish doesn’t make the best leftovers, so eat completely if possible. It shouldn’t be hard!
