Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Shallots have officially become my family’s favorite way to eat Brussels Sprouts!
Brussels sprouts have been a common side in our vegetable line-up for several years. While I would say that with a food-obsessed Mom, my kids have very exposed food pallets and love a lot of crazy things, my youngest two children at 5 and 9 years old still have some typical hangups about certain vegetables, but not Brussels Sprouts. We’ve cooked them numerous ways, but roasted tends to be the family favorite. Roasting the Brussels sweetens and caramelizes them in such a way that all three of my children will eat them and then ask for seconds!
That being said, last night’s version was by far a winner. This one-pan wonder combines crispy, smokey Bacon with sweet, caramelized Shallots mixed with slightly salty, roasted Brussels Sprouts to create a perfect symphony of flavor. And it’s so easy!

Grilled Sweet Chipotle Pork Tenderloin with Cilantro Lime Chimichurri has a smokey-hot, brown sugar wet rub that is also basted on the meat as it barbecues and develops into a divine crust. The fresh, tartness of the Cilantro Lime Chimicurri is the perfect accompaniment when it is served on slices of the pork tenderloin.
When you have one of the most perfect Spring days so far this season, the BBQ grill calls. At least, that’s how it happens at my house.
Am I going to run out and buy a pork steak and smear on some bottled barbecue sauce? Heck NO! Way too simple and boring. The first day in the 70s deserves creating something magnificent while wearing flip flops and shorts!
So, Grilled Sweet Chipotle Pork Tenderloin with Cilantro Lime Chimichurri. Totally Spring celebration worthy!
