Super Bowl time is among us. If you’re like me, you enjoy the game more for the funny commercials and the food that is put out at the party. There is something about the Super Bowl that elevates snacks and traditional tailgate foods. So today, we decided to elevate our snack level as well.
Say hello to these Brussel Sprout Sliders, the first appetizer that is going to disappear at your party! While they are so small, they pack a punch of flavor from the roasted brussels, the savory Brie cheese, the salty bacon, and the sweet onion jam with a touch of chili powder. Are you eating keto? Simply leave out the onion jam and enjoy a brie and bacon slider!
I recommend hand-picking out your brussels at the grocery store if you can, because you want the big ones! I also recommend finding the creamiest Brie that you can, so it is easy to spread! These little bites come together so nicely, they will be a hit!
Enjoy them, and enjoy coming together with family and friends this weekend to celebrate football and food!
