Ingredients

6 slices bacon - par-cooked
1 ½ pounds brussels sprouts - leaves trimmed, chopped
1 ½ pounds yellow potatoes - chopped
3-4 Tablespoons olive oil
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper - to taste

Instructions

Par-cook the bacon. Line a baking sheet with foil, place a wire rack on top, followed by the bacon slices, and then cook on 400 for about 20 minutes.
You want the bacon to be par-cooked, but not completely. Soak up some of the grease by laying the bacon on some paper towel. Chop into small pieces when slightly cooled.
6 slices bacon
Chop the potatoes. Chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. I like the potato chunks and the Brussels Sprout chunks to be about the same size.
1 ½ pounds yellow potatoes
Prep the brussels sprouts. Chop off the stem, remove the outer leaves, and depending on size, chop into halves or quarters.
1 ½ pounds brussels sprouts
Roast the veggies. Place the potatoes on one sheet pan, lined with with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil, and then add kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Repeat with the brussels sprouts. You may need to cover the brussels sprouts with foil for part of the time, as they tend to get dark fast.
Bake at 400 degrees for about 35-40 minutes (adding the bacon to the potatoes at about the halfway mark) or until veggies are tender. I recommend placing the potatoes on the top rack, with the Brussels sprouts underneath.
3-4 Tablespoons olive oil, kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Serve. Combine all roasted veggies plus bacon in a serving dish, add a bit more olive oil, salt and pepper, and serve immediately.

Notes

You can prepare the bacon ahead of time
Leftovers are super tasty too.
