Ingredients:

  • 3 strips Maple Leaf Bacon, cut up small and fried crispy
  • 2-3 Large Tomatoes, cut in bite size pieces
  • 1/4 Red Onion, thinly sliced
  • 8-10 leaves Fresh Basil
  • 1 tbsp Fresh oregano, or a little less dried
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese
  • 2 tbsp Balsalmic Vinegar
  • Salt and Pepper

 

Directions:

1. This recipe couldn’t be any simpler. First thing you gotta do is cut up your tomatoes. Believe it or not, that was just one MASSIVE tomato from the garden. I couldn’t believe how much I got out of it.

2. Toss in your bacon, oregano, basil chiffonade, salt, pepper and olive oil. Cut your red onion into slices as thin as you can get them and toss those in, too. Mix it all around and let it do it’s thing for a few minutes before you serve it.  Let those flavors get all together.

3. Plate it, topping with your crumbled feta and a drizzling of some balsamic vinegar, or even a balsamic reduction if you have access to it! Boom, lunch is served.
