Ingredients

1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
2-3 cloves garlic chopped
½ package bacon
1 cup pomegranate seeds
2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Wash and dry Brussels sprouts. Cut them in half, and place in a baking dish lined with foil. Add in the garlic and drizzle olive oil and salt all over. Mix lightly with hands.
Cover a baking sheet with foil. Line the bacon on the sheet.
Cook both the Brussels sprouts and bacon on 425°F for 30 minutes. Brussels sprouts should start to crisp and lightly brown on edges, and soften in the middle. Bacon should be crisp. Remove when done and allow both to cool for 5-10 minutes.
Chop bacon into small bits. Toss the Brussels sprouts, bacon, and pomegranate seeds together in a large bowl. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Serve immediately, or make ahead one day. (If prepping early, omit the pomegranate seeds until ready to serve. Reheat everything in the oven on 325°F for 5-10 minutes until warm, then toss with fresh pomegranate seeds.) Enjoy!
