- 3 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved (about 7-8 cups of brussels sprouts halves)
- 1 cup thinly sliced shallots (about one medium-large shallot)
- 15-20 fresh sage leaves
- 4 tablespoons olive oil

Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place brussels sprouts halves, shallots, and sage in a single layer on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup parmesan, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Bake for 20 minutes, then add the bread chunks, toss, sprinkle with another 1/4 cup parmesan, and continue to bake another 10 minutes.
