How to make bacon wrapped Brussels sprouts

Tips for making bacon wrapped Brussels sprouts
- How to pick Brussel sprouts: when purchasing Brussel spouts, look for tightly packed ones. Look for bright green and avoid any yellow leaves. The smaller Brussels sprouts are known to have a sweeter flavoring and cook thoroughly better.
- How do you prep Brussels sprouts: first cut off the rough edges of the Brussels sprouts and remove any rough edges or damaged leaves. Wash your Brussels sprouts throughly.
- Do you cut the Brussels sprouts in half: for this recipe there is no need to cut the Brussels sprouts in a half. It is best to bake them whole.
- Add a toothpick: I find it easier wrapping the bacon over the Brussels sprouts then using a toothpick to hold it together while baking.

What dip recipe would you use for these bacon wrapped brussel sprouts
I love using Homemade Ranch Dressing or this delicious Whipped Feta Dip
Can I make these in an air fryer instead of baking them or will they not have the same consistency? If so, how long in the air fryer pls?
I haven’t tried that with this recipe before but that sounds delicious! You could try adding the bacon and use this recipe to try it out! Crispy Parmesan Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts
These was were so darn good and easy!! Will definitely make them again!!

What kind of dip was that and how do you make it

Can you prepare them the day before?
Yes, these taste best served out of the oven but you can make them ahead of time. Once they are cooked, let cool then store in the refrigerator for 24 hours in an airtight container. When ready to heat up use the oven at 350*F to warm them until they are hot and ready to serve.
Can you prepare them a day before without baking them?
hi these look amazing I see in the picture you have a dip could you share what that is made of.
Yes, it is just creamy, homemade ranch dressing.
just wondering what you are using for a dip for the brussel sprouts when they are cooked.
It is a ranch dip.
What kind of dip serving with them?
It is ranch dip.
These look amazing! I notice that you picture shows serving these appetizers with a dip. Any suggestions on the best dip for this appetizer?
That dip is just a homemade ranch or just using a simple ranch bottle will work too.
I love the idea that I can use this recipe for many more wrappable foods such as shrimp.
I’m looking forward to making these and others during the Christmas Holidays.
Can you use frozen Brussel sprouts in this recipe?
Yes, that will work well too. Just let them thaw before making them.
Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts to wrap them in bacon… if so can I have a simple recipe
You can use frozen but I would let them thaw first (and make sure that you drain off any excess liquid). Then you can use this recipe with them as written!
