Brussels Sprouts Hash

Let’s face it, sometimes the slightly bitter Brussels sprout needs a little love to make it palatable to some. That’s where the smokiness of the bacon, the sweetness of the syrup and potato, and the bright citrus from the orange come into play. These flavors cut the bitterness from the sprouts and are a great addition to your gluten-free plate. I dare you to not love this side dish!
