ALFREDO EGG & GARLIC CROSTINI WITH BABY ROMAINE SALAD AND BACON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• 1. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate and reserve the fat.
• 2. Make the vinaigrette - Whisk the balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard and honey together in a mixing bowl. Slowly drizzle in the bacon fat and olive oil while whisking rapidly until the salad dressing is thick and creamy.
• 3. Toss the baby romaine, apples, cherry tomatoes and bacon crisps with the vinaigrette.
• 4. Make the parmesan cream - Heat the milk in a heavy saucepan over medium heat until bubbles form at the edges. Reduce the temperature to low and stir constantly until the cream coats the back of a metal spoon.
• 5. Remove from heat and stir in the parmesan cheese.
• 6. Make the crostini - Lay bread slices on a foil-lined baking pan. Brush each baguette slice with extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• 7. Toast the bread slices and rub each slice with the garlic.
• 8. Cook the egg - In a large skillet, melt butter over medium high heat. Crack eggs in pan and cook to desired firmness.
• 9. Assemble - Layer an egg, parmesan cream, crushed or sliced almonds on a toasted baguette slice. Garnish salad and crostini with tomatoes and serve.
