Bacon and Egg Salad is a good reason to move the traditional breakfast to a less than traditional lunch or summer dinner. Try it for yourself.
This egg salad recipe is unique becaue most of us associate bacon and eggs with a heavy breakfast and not a light lunch. This salad is truly tasty and different from the average salad concept; that’s even more reason to try it out. I use pancetta rather than bacon and a couple of ounces less because it gives a much stronger taste – however it is saltier so be careful how much seasoning you add.
