I have learned that you can never go wrong with brussel sprouts and bacon! A friend sent me this Linguine with Brussels Sprouts and Bacon recipe and I have now made it twice with great results. I usually dislike pasta sauces with bacon because the bacon can take over the rest of the flavors, but the strong flavors from the shallots and the bitterness of the sprouts compliments the bacon perfectly.

Brussel sprout haters may even love it!
