This recipe is so yummy, even your children (and of course the child in all of us) will learn to love Brussels sprouts. Serve warm with a meal and keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 10 days (they get better every day)!

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more seasoning.

Brussels sprouts were a little too charred for my taste, but the overall flavor was good. I'll try roasting them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This dish was easy to make and so delicious. The roasted Brussels sprouts were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The figs and bacon added a nice touch of sweetness and saltiness. I will definitely be making this again!
