My Maple Bacon Brussel Sprouts are perfect combination of sweet and salty. I mean, bacon makes everything better, am I right!? Salty from the crispy bacon and sweet from the caramelized maple syrup which coats each brussel sprout perfectly. Not only are these delicious, but they are extremely simple to make! There isn't much prep needed for this recipe and if it makes your life easier, you can definitely prep the stovetop steps and then finish the final steps of roasting day of. These Maple Bacon Brussel Sprouts are a great meal prep vegetable to make when you know you have a busy work week ahead!

Dis you try with the brussel sprout frozen? If you did, did it have the same texture?
40-45 min. cooking? Sounds like grossly over cooked sprouts! But ingred. sound good.
