How to make them

Rinse Brussels sprouts and trim off any browned outer leaves. Trim the stem and cut in half lengthwise. Toss them in a bowl.
Separate the bacon slices. I always do this before cutting them so they don't stick together in big clumps. Cut into "lardons" which is a fancy way of saying small strips. Add to the Brussels.
Add the rest of the ingredients and toss together.
Spread everything out on a tray lined with foil or parchment paper for easy clean up.
Bake in a 400 degree F oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until bacon is cooked and crispy.
