Brussels Sprouts

  • Trim sprouts and cut in half if necessary so all the sprouts are roughly the same size.
  • Wrap each sprout in bacon and place on a parchment lined baking sheet with bacon ends tucked under sprouts.
  • Roast at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until bacon and sprouts are done. Drain well on paper towels.

Cranberry Orange Glaze

  • Put cranberries, zest, juice and syrup into a large sauce pan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer.
  • Cook until berries burst open and soften.
  • Remove pan from heat and let sauce cool.
  • Once cool put sauce into a large jar and refrigerate for up to a week. Makes about 1 pint. It can be frozen for up to a month
