Let's be honest here, everyone knows that the best part of any #Thanksgiving dinner is the sides, amirite? Turkey may be the star of the show, but the sides make the magic happen. One of my favorite vegetables to make on Thanksgiving is Brussels sprouts. They can be prepared so many different ways, and lend themselves so well to such a wide variety of flavors. Now, I don't necessarily believe that EVERYTHING is better with bacon...but Brussels sprouts most definitely are. Add a bit of acid (lime juice, vinegar, or sriracha if you like a little heat) and you're in business. My current favorite method of preparation is pictured here. Use a mandoline to finely shred the sprouts, give them a quick sautée in bacon fat, then toss in some toasted almonds, the crispy bacon, and some fresh fruit (I used fresh cranberries, but pomegranate or diced apples would be great also.) Happy Thanksgiving, everybody...eat up! #🦃 #hoosierfood #bkmckitchen (at Greensburg, Indiana)

So stoked I finally made it here for lunch. #😎 #bkmckeatsout #bkmckitchen #hoosierfood #loveindy (at Wildwood Market)
