    Bacon and potatoes. My two favorite foods. But I’d have to add pepper!

      I know right. I should have weighed the cooked portion to be accurate cuz some of it was lost to noshing while cooking. Oh you poor dear, I ate a pound of bacon and had yogurt. I’ll balance it out tomorrow and eat a yogurt in your honour. Oh wait, I’m having Turtles French Bread for breakfast tomorrow. *evil laugh*
      BAAAACOOOON!!!!!

    Bacon does indeed rule! I’d probably cook some onions along with the potatoes but that’s just me. And maybe just a touch of garlic. But otherwise I’d make it exactly the same way you do (and actually have, often, in the past!). Good stuff – wonderful for breakfast or even as a dinner side.

      I did a batch with some jazz for a future post, ha. I had to do it. You know me with shallots and onions. This is such a great standby right. Perfect for any brunch get together.
