Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Pepperoni Bits (or Bacon)

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe.

Servings: Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 15 Brussels sprouts trimmed and peeled. Just trim off the bottom of the stem and peel off a top later of leaves so you have clean Brussels sprouts ready to roast.
  • 1 tsp of minced garlic
  • 2 Tbl olive oil
  • sea salt to taste
  • 15 pepperoni rounds (1” size) cut into chunky bits. Or you can use bacon. Or pork belly. Just cut it kind of thick so it doesn’t burn – think Chiclets size – if you remember those.

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In an oven proof pan, put in the Brussels sprouts, garlic and olive oil. Toss to coat the Brussels sprouts in oil and garlic. Grate some sea salt over the top and sprinkle on the pepperoni bits.

Roast in your oven for 30 minutes until nicely browned.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
