Good. Will make again.
This is hands-down fantastic. Did not make any adjustments other than using tortellini instead of ravioli and using 5 slices bacon in lieu of 6. Once the brussels sprouts are sliced, this recipe took no time at all to throw together and once it was done, we could NOT stop eating it. Five stars.
skipped the nuts. this was so delicious. did as others suggested and cooked the brussel sprouts in some bacon grease also added some pasta water. would not combine bacon at the end, but would crumble on top the plate as it got a bit soggy, i like my bacon to crunch
Loaded with taste! Such an interesting combination of ingredients. I just thought it was a bit dry. I would add a little broth next time just to moisten it a bit. Yum!
My husband loved this recipe. Since he doesn't eat pork, I substituted in turkey bacon and it was still delicious. I burned the pecans a little because I hadn't prepped the brussel sprouts ahead of time, but it still turned out well.
My family *loved* this. I was not expecting it to be such a hit, so I made it one night when my husband was coming home late. My daughter and I ate earlier. When my husband was walking in the door, my daughter (8) said, "Let's just act normal, like we didn't just eat the best meal *ever*!" I too cooked in the bacon grease, although I removed some first... there was a lot in there. Probably because I cooked the whole package of bacon, which I then reheated in the microwave for breakfasts that week. Brussels sprout tip: Pick through the ones in the store to get the smallest ones they have and you won't get that bitter flavor that makes so many people dislike the poor little guys!
