Bacon for non-pork eater

My significant other has vowed not to eat pork several years back, this has nothing to do with religion but more of health reasons.

This meant that every time we have to eat Caesar salad, I had to request to have the bacon bits on the side. Same goes with other bacon-laden dishes, I had to religiously remove each morsels before he can dig in.

Imagine my jubilation when I chanced upon an alternative in one of my recent visit to S&R, Jennie 0 Turkey Bacon.

At first I am kind of apprehensive on how it would taste and if it would serve its purpose (to add a bacon flavor), but the price tag of Php199 made me decide to try it.

Ciabatta with Turkey Bacon and Mozzarella

Ingredients:
Ciabatta Bread
Mayonnaise
Pan-fried turkey bacon
Slices of Mozzarella
(S&R U.S. Mozarella)

Procedure:

Pre-heat oven toaster.

Spread Mayonnaise on each half of Ciabatta bread, lay the slices of mozzarella and the pre-cooked turkey bacon. Close the sandwich and toss to the pre-heated oven for 3 minutes then serve.

I took the liberty of adding this video while I am cooking the bacon just to show you that it can really get crispy.

Verdict:

Delightful smoky flavor and the crispiness will really make you think that you’re getting the real thing.

Enjoy!

I haven't tried a turkey bacon and maybe in my next S&R visit, I'd try them out and this recipe too. The outcome looks simple yet tasty. :)

I wish this is available sa ibang supermarket. We love bacon so much kahit na feeling ko napaka-unhealthy. This one is a good alternative.

The only non-pork bacon I've tried so far is Beef Bacon, which I ate every morning for breakfast when I was in Brunei. It's nice to know that there are other non-pork bacons out there like the Turkey Bacon, which I think is worth a try. Gotta make a trip to S&R soon.

wow this is a very good alternative from the pork bacon we use to eat. I eat pork but very seldom that we buy bacon because I also had a habit of not eating some visible fats.

I don't know if this is true, but my son was just telling me over the weekend that turkey bacon still contains pork. He saw it daw on a National Geographic show. Yiiiikes if that's true!

S&R is the place to be if you really want quality finds! Anyway, I love turkey bacon, too. I haven't tried that brand, though. Will check it out soon.

The sandwich looks good. If you like turkey bacon, you might enjoy turkey pepperoni sticks too.

I would cry like a baby if I had to stop eating bacon, but I know others have health issue for not eating bacon and turkey bacon is a great alternative

Turkey bacon is definitely a healthier alternative to pork bacon. I wanna try it myself before I conclude that it's as tasty as a pork bacon. ^_^
