Ingredient notes
Bacon – I used turkey bacon to keep things a little more lean without compromising flavor.
Kale – Most people don’t think kale when they go to make breakfast, but why the kale not? When seasoned and served warm as seen in this recipe, you won’t even realize that it’s good for you. So why not add in some extra greens and fiber?
