Holidays Thanksgiving Thanksgiving Side Dish Thanksgiving Vegetable Side Dish Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon & Onions for Two Be the first to rate & review! Hearty Brussels sprouts pair nicely with salty bacon and onions in this quick Thanksgiving side dish for two. A sweet balsamic glaze makes a nice complement drizzled over the top, but it's not necessary to enjoy this classic combo. For a twist on this recipe, try swapping pancetta for the bacon. If you want to have leftovers, this recipe is easily doubled. By Hilary Meyer Hilary Meyer Hilary Meyer is a recipe developer, tester, and content creator.
