brussels sprouts with bacon and apple.

3 slices bacon, cut into 1/2" pieces
4 pints brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and halved
coarse salt and ground pepper
1 apple, cored and cut into 1/4" slices, each slice halved crosswise
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar

preheat oven to 425 degrees.  arrange bacon in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.  bake until browned, about 10 minutes.  add brussels sprouts in a single layer; sprinkle with salt and pepper.   roast until they begin to brown, about 15 minutes.

remove from oven and toss in apple.  return to oven; roast until brussels sprouts are browned and tender and apple has softened, 10 to 15 minutes.

toss vegetables with vinegar and serve immediately.

thanksgiving review : day 3.  a surprise hit, especially with my mom.  we both were nibbling away on this one before it was even served.  take a chance, even if you don't think you'll like it.  an added bonus is that it's good for you!
