Holy hell these are delicious! I have a new found adoration for the sprouts! =)

1 lb. brussel sprouts
3 slices bacon chopped
1/2 C whole cream
1 pinch of salt
1/2 TBS lemon juice
2 TBS fresh chopped parsley

1. Wash brussel sprouts, remove outer leaves and bottoms, slice in half.
2. In a large heavy saucepan that has a lid, brown bacon until crisp. Remove bacon, leaving fat in the pan.
3. Add brussel sprouts to bacon fat and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until sprouts begin to brown.
4. Add cream and a pinch of salt, stir, then cover with a lid and cook over medium low heat until cream is absorbed. (Original recipe said 15 minutes, but mine were good at 10 minutes)
5. Add lemon juice to sprouts and stir to combine.
6. Sprinkle parsley and bacon over sprouts and serve…fight the urge to stand over your stove shoveling the sprouts into your face. =)
