Warm Chickpea, Mushroom, and Brussels Sprouts Salad

Hubby and I LOVE brussels sprouts. When they’re roasted, they are my favorite vegetable. We probably eat roasted brussels at least once a week. Sometimes more like three times a week. They’re just SO GOOD. And I’m proud to say that I introduced them to my family and now my 17 year old sister makes them at home for dinner.

As much as I love roasted brussels, I also like to mix things up sometimes. I made this recipe for the first time as an excuse to try that Cardamom Candied Bacon. Let me tell you, we’ve been mixing this Warm Chickpea, Mushroom, and Brussels Sprouts Salad pretty often since that first time.

If I don’t have candied bacon, I just use regular old bacon. I honestly couldn’t notice a difference when the bacon wasn’t candied. The hardest part of this recipe is just slicing the brussels. Luckily, Hubby enjoys this dish so much, he offers to slice the brussels for me while I cook the bacon. This salad is great fresh off the stove and it also reheats well and is a perfect addition to a packed lunch from home.
