Eggs & Rice -- GOTTA LOVE IT!

Eggs & Rice was one of my favorite childhood meals. It's great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Thanks to my mom, Egg and Rice ranked up there with her French Toast. YUMMY. My family teases me because of the over 40 year old ritual/preparation I go through before.


First my bacon has to be fried just right. Not squishy (fatty) and not so hard that the taste is lost. And PLUEEZEEEE – only PORK BACON!! Then comes the frying of the egg – not hard or browned, but scrambled just right. I toss my rice into the pan and mix together.

So here’s where the family thinks I’m weird---I must piece my bacon into very small size nits and spread over the egg and rice. That’s the only way I’ll eat it. It may seem silly, but that’s one ritual that will not be changing anytime soon.
