YUMMY BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON & ONION



Yummy Brussels Sprouts With Bacon & Onion image

I came up with this myself. Since brussels sprouts have a similar flavor to cabbage, I have adapted my cabbage recipe for them. My husband thought he did not like brussels sprouts until I made these. I usually have to do a double batch and we end up fighting over the leftovers!!!
