Wilted Lettuce (Recipe)
Possibly the Greatest Way to Enjoy Fresh Salad Greens.
INGREDIENTS:
6 slices bacon
1/2 cup sliced green onion
1/4 cup organic vinegar
1/4 cup water
4 Tablespoons sugar
1 chopped, hard-boiled egg
6 radishes, sliced
8 cups of leaf lettuce, torn into pieces and placed in large bowl
Cook the bacon until crisp; drain and crumble, reserving 1 Tablespoon of the drippings.
Add onions to the reserved drippings and cook until tender.
Add vinegar, sugar, water, and cook, stirring until boiling.
Pour hot dressing over the lettuce; quickly toss to coat. Garnish with crumbled bacon, egg, and radish slices.
Serves 6, but everyone will want more.
Low Fat Tip: Use turkey bacon, and fry it in a Tablespoon of olive oil.
("Bacon and drippings" are definitely not on my menu anymore.)

Post a CommentI'll have to try this with the turkey bacon and substitute Splenda for sugar. Sounds good.
This sounds so yummy. A restaurant nearby serves something similar, and it's one of my favorites. Speaking of favorites, I'm adding you to mine! ;-)
