A small amount of bacon goes a long way to flavor these very thinly sliced Brussels sprouts—the results may even win over sprout skeptics.

6 servings, 1/2 cup each | Active Time: 30 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 slices bacon
• 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed, halved and very thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Preparation

1. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning once, until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel. Crumble.
2. Add onion and salt to the drippings in the pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until tender and browned, about 3 minutes. Add water and mustard and scrape up any browned bits. Add Brussels sprouts and cook, stirring often, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in vinegar and top with the crumbled bacon.
