Maple Bacon Brussels Sprouts
We love bringing out the natural sweetness and flavor of Brussels sprouts by roasting them. We took it to the next level this time by roasting chopped bacon right alongside the veggies and tossing it all in a bit of maple syrup.

Notes
- These really aren't spicy at all, but you may swap the cayenne for cracked black pepper if you prefer.
- For maximum crispy edges, arrange the sprouts so that they are cut side down on the baking sheet.
