Brussels Sprouts and Bacon Pesto Pasta

I was looking for a great new way to make Brussels sprouts and this one caught my eye because it has pasta, bacon and pesto!! Can you say YUM???

This makes about 8 servings.

Notes: I cut this recipe in half for our family. I also used dried basil instead of fresh, so I cut the amount in half.

*If you want to watch the video of this being made, this recipe starts at the 10:23 mark.

This dish is technically a side dish, but it could stand alone for sure! So yummy!
