I for one love Brussels sprouts and love this Brussels Sprouts Soup.

But my brother?  That's a completely different story.

I'm the Brussels sprouts lover of our family.  And my brother most decidedly is not.  Growing up, when my Mom would make a batch of this Brussels Sprouts Soup for dinner, it would definitely result in a house divided.

I was super excited to enjoying one of my absolute favorites vegetables in this tasty creamy soup ... and my brother?  Well, to say that he was less than excited is an immense understatement.  Because when it comes to this soup, it's really quite simple ~ if you like Brussels sprouts, then you'll love it.  If you don't like Brussels sprouts, this soup's not for you.

So to all the Brussels sprouts lovers out there, I'll say not only do I love the abundance of Brussels sprouts in this dish, I also love that this is one soup that comes together super quickly.

The recipe takes advantage of frozen Brussels sprouts so there's no cleaning and peeling of little leaves.  And no real cooking of the sprouts themselves either, since the frozen ones are pretty much cooked already.

All you have to do to prepare the frozen Brussels sprouts is simply heat them up and give them a rough chop.

Then in a large saucepan or Dutch oven, fry up some bacon and garlic, add the other ingredients, and let this simmer for about 15 minutes.  The already-heated Brussels sprouts are added at the very end and warmed in the pot just until they're heated through.

Then the Brussels Sprouts soup is ready to enjoy with a little sprinkling of cheese on top!  And maybe with a little extra bacon, too.  You know, because you just can't go wrong with a little extra bacon, right?
