Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Prosciutto by Heather

Here's an idea for a really easy side dish.  It's great at Thanksgiving or really with any fall meal.

Ingredients:
1 carton brussels sprouts, bottom part and outer leaves removed, and quartered
3 sheets prosciutto
1 garlic clove, minced
1 shallot, minced
1 tbs. lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
3 tbs. olive oil

Place brussels sprouts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper, garlic, shallot, and olive oil, and combine with your hands. Tear prosciutto into small pieces and place on top of Brussels.

Roast in oven at 375 degrees for 30 minutes, shaking tray half way through.  Remove from oven and sprinkle with more salt and lemon juice.

Special Ingredient: Brussels Sprouts and Pancetta Pizza by Rachel

Brussels sprouts get such a bad rep because sometimes they can taste a little bitter if not cooked through enough.  Well, I'm here to tell you that they make an excellent pizza topping.  Pair them with a little pancetta and they are wonderful!  

Pizza is not an easy food to make so if you are going to embark on this journey, give yourself time and be prepared to work.

The recipe below makes about 2 pizzas that are a little larger than personal pan size.
