Bacon lover or broccoli fan? Frankly, I haven’t heard many people rhapsodize over broccoli they way some do over bacon. But with this combination, you get the best of broccoli nutrition and the taste of bacon. In this case, it’s turkey bacon, so pretty healthy after all.
I get more raves for this recipe than almost any of my many other ones. Men in particular give it a thumbs up. Again, it must be the bacon. Great for large gatherings.
