For a vegetarian option, substitute the bacon with smoked paprika and a drizzle of maple syrup for a touch of sweetness. If you don't have Chardonnay, a dry Sauvignon Blanc or even chicken broth can be used as a substitute. To avoid mushy sprouts, don't overcook them. They should still have a slight bite. Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or a pinch of nutmeg.
