Baked Brussels Sprouts

Ingredients
4 slices veggie bacon, cut into small pieces
1 pound Brussels sprouts
3 garlic cloves, sliced
3 sage leaves
2 bay leaves
2 ounces olive oil
Pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 slices lemon
1 tablespoon butter

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a saute pan, over medium heat, add the bacon and cook until
the fat has been rendered.

Remove to paper towels to drain.

In a large bowl, add all the remaining ingredients, except the
butter, and toss until the Brussels sprouts are coated with the
oil.

Lay out a 20-inch piece of parchment paper over aluminum foil on
a sheet pan and pour the Brussels sprout mixture into the
middle, then top with the butter and bacon.

Fold the foil over itself and put into the preheated oven.

Cook for 25 to 30 minutes or until they smell done.

Remove the sprouts from the oven and transfer them to a serving
bowl.
