  1. My DH and I aren't normally big brussels sprouts fans, but they were on sale, so I bought some. I reduced the recipe for two, but used two slices of bacon (because we love bacon!) but I agree with the other reviewers that only one slice was needed. The only thing I did different from the recipe was to boil the sprouts for 6 min until crisp tender while the bacon was cooking. This was really good and he requested that I make them again.
     
  2. As another reviewer I was making this for two so cut to 2 strips of bacon. Still more than needed, One strip would have been enough. I had no shallots on hand so used some sweet onion and a medium clove of garlic. I cooked it for 15 minutes at 425. Got a bit black and dried on the outside. Next time I'll drop the temp to 400. Worth trying again but pay attention to what's happening.
     
  3. I loved this! The brussel sprouts tasted like little pieces of heaven with the carmelized shallots on them. I cut the recipe down to serve 2, and only used 1 slice of bacon....mine was thick sliced, and it was too much for the sprouts. So I'd adjust the bacon amount a bit. My brussels sprouts got very brown, even though I reduced the temp to 375 and reduced the cooking time....so I recommend watching the cooking time and the sprouts accordingly! The end result was absolutedly wonderful....I'll definitely make this again. Made for PAC Spring 2010. Thanks PAC Preemie!
