Piece by Piece

To prepare myself to become a career woman, I have decided I will need collect healthy quick fix meals for future reference. This one, Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, was actually a recipe I’ve been looking to try ever since I saw Rachel Ray made it for Thanksgiving.

Okay, so it’s not thanksgiving but the dish does look pretty and, most importantly, very quick to make. I’ve made it in about 20 minutes (of course I cheated a little bit by using frozen brussels sprouts). Whoever says brussels sprouts has a nutty hint of flavor is dead-on. Even though adding the bacon would make this meal ‘less healthy’, I think nobody should skip it since the bacon complements that nutty flavor very well. And if you’re really short of time, substituting with bacon bits would cut down the prep time significantly.

I stumbled upon this page today. Just a small mention of my name in the UB News but that really made my day.
Anyway, here is the important bits for those of you who don’t want to wade through the entire article:

Now I’m wondering if that was ever printed. I must have missed it during my trip to Chicago last month.

Hopefully this first seed planted on this blog would grow into a thriving and long-lived journal.
