Ingredients

Instructions

  • Chop the bacon, then saute it in a skillet until very crisp. 
  • Remove the bacon from the grease and set it aside on a plate covered with paper towels to absorb excess oil so that it continues to crisp. Once it has cooled to the touch, crumble into smaller pieces. 
  • Keep 1/3 cup of the bacon grease in the skillet and remove the rest if there is any excess. It should render approx 1/3 cup. 
  • Add the fresh minced garlic and chopped onion to the skillet and saute in the bacon grease until the onion is translucent. 
  • Add all of the other ingredients and bring to a boil. Boil uncovered for 5 minutes or until the Low Carb Hot Bacon Dressing reduces stirring with a whisk to avoid sticking to the pan. 
  • Remove from heat, add the crumbled bacon to the dressing, and stir until thoroughly combined. 
  • To serve after being refrigerated, you will need to rewarm and add additional water since the bacon grease will become firm in the fridge.
