Ingredients

  • 1 ⅓ lb Brussels sprouts
  • 6 slices turkey bacon cut into 1 inch pieces (see note)
  • 2 Tb butter
  • 1 red onion diced
  • 3 c chicken broth
  • 1 c heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 Tb parsley

Instructions

  • To begin, prepare your Brussels sprouts by cutting off the stem and then cutting the sprout in half.
  • Cook the onion, turkey bacon, and butter together in a Dutch oven until the onion is just slightly translucent.
  • Add in the Brussels sprouts. Cook these over medium low heat until the Brussels sprouts are tender.
  • When the Brussels sprouts are cooked, scoop half of the mixture out into a dish. 
  • Add the broth, cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it is fairly smooth.
  • Add the reserved Brussels sprouts mixture back to the pot, along with the parsley.
  • Let the soup simmer for just a minute.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

If you do not have an immersion blender, use a traditional blender to blend the soup.
