Braised Brussels Sprouts with Bacon

You've never had them quite like this. Bacon + sprouts = pure indulgence! Even though Brussels sprouts are the base, there's nothing diet about this dish — the richness comes from the bacon, butter, wine, and cream. Thanks to the bacon, you can skip the salt entirely, which really lets the natural sweetness of the carrots and bell peppers shine. I love this in the fall, when the weather starts to turn cold. The cream rounds out the flavors; made with melted cheese instead, it comes out sharper.
