I love Brussels sprouts, which is probably news to Mamaist, who tried to make me eat them for years. The trick, I discovered, is eating them fresh (not frozen)—and with meat, preferably bacon. I had this epiphany while I was in college, and I've never looked back. This has led me to amazing finds, like the Brussels sprouts and bacon salad at Alison at Blue Bell and the duck fat-fried, lardon-enhanced sprouts frequently served as a special at St. Stephen's Green in Fairmount. It's also led me to experiment in my own kitchen, and this time of year, when the cute little veggies are in season and readily available at Iovine Brothers in Reading Terminal Market, my love of trying new things with Brussels sprouts knows no bounds. Below is the recipe for my most recent concoction. I think it's a keeper—and because I'm still weight watching, it's a keeper that's not too bad for your diet!
