Balancing a full-time job and my love for cooking can be a challenge, but I've found that streamlined recipes help me manage both! One evening, after a particularly busy day, I craved something comforting yet low-carb, and that's how my Low Carb Brussels Sprouts with Cream Sauce & Bacon was born. This dish not only satisfies my comfort food cravings but fits perfectly into a low-carb lifestyle. Plus, Brussels sprouts are like mini-nutritional powerhouses, paired with creamy, bacon-infused goodness, this dish is a hit whenever I have friends over for a cozy dinner night.
This dish is versatile and can be a delightful side or a main course, depending on your mood. If you’re serving it as a side, it pairs beautifully with roasted chicken or grilled salmon. For a more complete meal, you might serve it with a light green salad or cauliflower mash for a truly satisfying low-carb dinner. Don't forget a crisp white wine like a Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio to complement the creamy sauce and smoky bacon.
