A lunch time quickie today!
When I was a vegetarian, I truly didn’t miss meat. Truly.
But now that I’ve been eating some meat again, I must admit. It’s good.
Especially bacon.
When I get good quality bacon from the local markets – or in this case, from Zak’s mom and step dad who raised their own pigs last year – I dig it.
I’ve been cooking 10 – 12 strips at once to make homemade bacon bits for salads. Fry it up, trim most (but not all) of the fat, move to a few paper towels to soak up the grease, chop and store in the fridge to use on salads over the course of a few days.
