have you ever tried wilted lettuce and green onions? one of my favorite fresh from the garden, broke food of the 1970’s concoctions.
large bowl of loose leaf lettuce add chopped green onions, make sure you wash and dry thoroughly.
cut several strips of bacon into small pieces and fry them crisp. remove the bacon from the pan leaving the drippings. add plain old white vinegar to deglaze the pan and add sugar, stirring over heat until the sugar dissolves. while the mixture is hot pour it over the lettuce and onion and stir. don’t forget to throw the bacon pieces in too. add a bit of salt and pepper to taste and voila! broke food of the farm! (the vinegar and sugar measurements are completely random, you can start with 1/4 of a cup of each and then adjust to suit your own taste.)

Thank you. I can get my husband to actually eat veggies if they have bacon in them!

We add to that some fried potatoes, cut up hard boiled eggs and a little mayo. In fact we had that last night for supper. Sooooo good!
