Brussels sprouts are a great side dish to your favorite keto meal because they are packed full of micronutrients and fiber. Brussels sprouts are relatively low in carbohydrates (as compared to some other vegetables) and can be made more keto-friendly by adding in healthy fats. This Brussels sprouts recipe combines the flavors of Brussels with bacon and onion for the perfect tasty side dish!

In a large sauté pan, cook the bacon over medium-low heat for 5 to 6 minutes to render the fat.
