Bacon- Dijon Brussel Sprout Slaw with Cornbread Croutons
 
 
Author:
Recipe type: Salad-slaw
What You Need
  • 6-8 Brussels Sprouts, shaved on the larger side of a box grater
  • 1 piece of cornbread, sliced into small cubes, liberally sprayed with cooking spray, and toasted until crunchy and brown (about 5 minutes)
  • 1 large, thick slice of cooked bacon, finely chopped
  • ½ tablespoon of bacon grease
  • salt, pepper to taste
  • 6 granny smith apple slices
  • ½ teaspoon of dijon mustard
What to Do
  1. Toast the cornbread in the oven or toaster oven
  2. Cook the bacon however you usually do that (skillet, oven, micowave, whatevs).
  3. While that’s happening, shave the Brussels Sprouts, then heat your bacon grease in a skillet. (If you don’t keep leftover bacon grease in your fridge, then you’ll want to cook your bacon in a skillet so you can save the grease. I ALWAYS have some on hand, which means I could go the fast way and microwave the bacon this time.)
  4. Sautee’ the shaved sprouts in the grease until they are lightly wilted, and mix in the mustard. Salt and pepper them lightly, and then toss with the croutons and bacon pieces. Serve on a plate with the apple slices.
