Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 150 grams Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Step 2
Rinse the Brussels sprouts thoroughly, trim the ends, and remove any wilted outer leaves. Cut larger sprouts in half for even cooking.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 15 minutes.
Step 5
While the sprouts are roasting, chop the bacon into small pieces and cook in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Step 6
Once the Brussels sprouts have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the crispy bacon pieces evenly over the sprouts.
Step 7
Top with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring even coverage across the sprouts.
Step 8
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with golden spots.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a touch of color and freshness.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy your cheesy bacon Brussels sprouts!
