Ingredients

1 pound Brussels sprouts cleaned and trimmed
2 slices bacon cut into 1/2-inch pieces
salt and ground pepper to taste
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp butter cut into tiny pieces

Instructions

Lightly grease a baking dish and preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 degrees Celsius).
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook uncovered until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Once the Brussels sprouts are cold, drain well, and cut in halves or quarters, depending on size. Set aside.
Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until limp and lightly browned. Reduce heat and stir in the Brussels sprouts. Season with salt and pepper, then toss for about 1 minute to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Place the bacon and Brussels sprouts in the prepared baking dish. Pour cream evenly over the Brussels sprouts, then sprinkle breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese on top. Place pieces of butter over the breadcrumbs.
Bake in the oven until golden brown and heated through, 20 to 25 minutes. Broil for the last 2-3 minutes.

Notes

To STORE leftovers of Brussel Sprout Casserole, place them in an airtight container in the fridge, where they will stay good for up to 3 days. Freezing is not recommended as the cream and vegetables may separate and become watery upon thawing.

You can REHEAT this casserole in the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and warm the casserole, covered with aluminum foil, for about 15-20 minutes or until heated through. You can also reheat in the microwave until everything has warmed through.
