Brussels Sprouts, Eggs and Bacon
A complete sheet pan breakfast with eggs, crisp bacon and roasted brussels sprouts! Quick/easy with one pan to clean!
Brussels. Parmesan eggs. And bacon.
Say hello to my complete breakfast for the last 11 days.
No joke.
I could probably eat this for lunch and dinner too.
And the best part?
You don’t need 3 separate pans for this.
Nope.
Just make your wells for the eggs and boom.
One sheet pan.
3 breakfast premium items.
Done.

I baked it for nearly twice the time indicated and although the bacon was cooked, it was NOT crispy and remained soggy. Very disappointing.
Amazing!
I just made this, switching a couple things slightly. Imo, both bacon and Brussels sprouts roast a bit better at 425 so I preheated to that temp. I mixed the honey, oil, vinegar and garlic along with a bit of salt and pepper and added a tablespoon of whole grain Dijon mustard (to help with emulsification) till smooth then stirred in the prepped sprouts till they were well coated. These I dumped onto the prepared sheetpan and scattered the diced bacon over and around. I roasted for about 10 minutes, stirred well, then roasted about 5 more minutes till the bacon (thick cut applewood smoked) was just getting to done, then I added the eggs. I sprinkled on Aleppo pepper rather than crushed red (it has some heat but WAY more flavor) and the cheese, then returned to the oven. Took about 8 minutes till the egg whites were cooked though but the yolks were cooked but still soft. Really delicious.
I made this as part of my meal prepping for the week. Will these servings be good up until Thursday if i refrigerate? I would hate to waste this food.
As I am not an expert on food safety, I cannot really say with certainty – sorry, Stephanie! Methods for optimal food storage and shelf life should be based on good judgment and what you are personally comfortable with.
You can do that. Make sure the dish is cool BEFORE you cover and refrigerate. No food safety issue at all.
I made this for dinner the other night (and ate for breakfast the next morning) Never would have thought of this combination but I LOVED it. I cannot wait to make this again. Thanks for an awesome recipe!

Tried this tonight and it was delicious! However, my eggs were cooked through and no longer runny. Tips? Do I cook them for less time? Thank you!
Yes, you can cook them for less time!
Newly into brussel sprouts and this looks amazing can’t wait to try this recipe…
This looks wonderful. I’m wondering if anyone has had a chance to make this yet. I’m thinking that the Brussels sprouts will be overlooked and bacon undercooked, given the time it takes to bake these items separately. If the times work out perfectly, I’d like to hear that.
I make mine in a glass casserole dish works fine just takes longer to cook maybe 5-6 minutes more. I also partially cook the bacon to reduce the amount of grease that ends up in the pan because I add mushrooms and some bell pepper as well. I also arranged the brussel sprouts in little circles and then crack the eggs inside of them makes for a really cool presentation
So, how did you store it for 11 days? Just refrigerate and microwave? Did that change the dish? This looks amazing, I want to try it, just want to make sure that it doesn’t need to all be eaten immediately!
I actually didn’t mean the 11 days literally! 🙂
But could you make it ahead for a week?
Is it safe to make sunny side eggs in advance?

Brussels sprouts and bacon are one of my favorite combos! I’ve never thought to put rosemary with it too but will have to try this one out next time for sure!
Your stated times didn’t work for me in my oven. I let the Brussels sprouts and bacon roast for an extra 5 minutes before putting in the eggs, and the bacon STILL wasn’t crispy when the eggs were done. So I popped the eggs out and just put the pan back in for another 5 minutes – hopefully it’s salvageable.
Looks/sounds delicious, just don’t get the honey thing?
Also, may I suggest substituting for the olive oil with an oil that doesn’t oxidize (turn carcinogenic) at 400 degrees?
It really funny when i tried recipes from blogs like yours, It doesn’t look as great as your’s. HAHA
Ha! My husband has been putting leftover roasted Brussels sprouts in scrambled eggs for years-it’s sooo good. We will definately give this a try!
love this idea, genius! thanks for sharing and great way to eat brussels!
This looks so so good! I wouldn’t have thought to add brussels sprouts to my breakfast but I think it works! The fact that it’s all in one pan just makes it all the more satisfying!
