This was my first time venturing into using brussels sprouts as the main ingredient for salad. But as soon as I saw that BACON was involved in the recipe… as well as a delicious-sounding Honey-Lemon Vinaigrette, I was totally on board.
The recipe come from a book by Julie Wampler from the Table for Two blog. Her book is aptly named, Dinner for Two: Easy and Innovative Recipes for One, Two or a Few. This is a great cookbook to have on hand if it’s just you at home… or if it’s just you and a partner. Here are some recipes I have bookmarked to make: Parmesan- Crusted Chicken Rice Bowls, 20-Minute Teriyaki Chicken and Broccoli, Sloppy Joe Mac n’ Cheese, Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Fettuccine, Beer-Braised Roast with Polenta, and the Smoked Sausage and Spinach Tater Tot Breakfast Bake.
I made this recipe to go with our Thanksgiving meal this year, and I plan to make it to go with our Christmas dinner too. The sweet lemony vinaigrette is delicious, it’s a nice change from regular-‘ol salad, and I was really happy to taste a lot of bacon in this salad. We loved it!
