ROASTED VEGGIES, BACON, AND PAN-FRIED FIGS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400° F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Arrange the vegetables in this order: sweet potato, zucchini, beets so that the zucchini doesn't burn. Sprinkle with sea salt. Roast the vegetables 12-15 minutes, carefully flip each section with a spatula and return to the oven. Continue roasting another 12-15 minutes. * Usually my nose tells me when the sweet potatoes are done! Roast the bacon for about 20-25 minutes and remove it from the oven. Once the vegetables are golden in color, give them a final toss, mixing them all together. About five minutes before the time is up, bring 1 TB of rendered bacon fat to medium heat in a cast iron skillet. Add the fig slices and let them heat through caramelize, stirring occasionally. Just for a few minutes. Remove from heat and remove vegetables and bacon from the oven. Divide the vegetables evenly among four plates, wrap bacon slices around the base of each pile of vegetables, and add the fig slices. Serve with a cuppa bone broth and some garlic wilted greens for a balanced breakfast!

BACON-WRAPPED FIGS

Steps:

• Rinse the figs clean and pat them dry. Trim off any excess stem from them and set them aside.*
• Cut each piece of bacon in half lengthwise so you have long, skinny strips of bacon to work with. If you want to use less bacon per fig, cut them in half crosswise as well.
• Wrap each fig with a strip of bacon. The bacon should wrap around several times; have it overlap as little as possible. This method will help the bacon stay on without the help of toothpicks. If you want to use shorter bacon strips, you may need to use a toothpick to secure the bacon in place; once the bacon is cooked, it should hold in place on its own so you can remove the toothpicks as it cooks or before serving.
• You can now cook them one of two ways, on the stove or under a broiler:​ ​​ On the Stove : Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Set the bacon-wrapped figs in the pan and cook, turning as each side browns and crisps up, until all sides of the bacon are done to your liking. Remove the figs, setting them on several layers of paper towels to blot off any excess fat before serving them piping hot.​​ Under a Broiler : Heat a broiler. Set the figs on a baking sheet. Turn the figs as needed to brown and crisp the bacon on all sides. As above, transfer the figs to several layers of paper towels to blot off any excess fat before serving them piping hot. *If you want to gild the lily, cut a vertical slit in the sides of the figs before wrapping them and insert a peeled almond or a nub of blue cheese or a bit of goat cheese in the center, then proceed with Step #3.
