Penne with Brussels Sprouts and Crisp Bacon

Not every holiday meal has to feature a big hunk of meat at the center of the table. This dish encapsulates fall flavor with steamed Brussels sprouts and crunchy hazelnuts, a creamy Parmesan sauce, and just a little bit of bacon. To make this a vegetarian-friendly entrée, use vegetable broth instead of chicken, and serve the crumbled bacon on the side.
