Looking for a showstopper side-dish that will be both delicious and low in calories? This is it!
There is only 2 slices of bacon in this recipe and a mere tablespoon of maple syrup but, combined with the balsamic vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil something magical happens to this admittedly most hated-by-kids vegetable when it roasts in the oven, making it a wonderful treat. Yes! A treat!

Before roasting…
And they will still taste great the next day as leftovers, reheated….
