Meal # 14 Pork Chops Wrapped in Bacon
I came home the other night with a plan forming in my head on what to do with a couple of pork chops. I used to be a vegetarian and the biggest thing I missed was a McDonald's Big Mac and real bacon. I would get tofu bacon and eat it whenever I had the craving. The tofu bacon was actually quite good and settled the demanding meat man inside me. A couple draw backs? It looked like a dog treat and it chewed like plastic. So I was having a hankering for bacon and I needed to use these chops. So I did what I feel like good chefs do; I wrapped pork in pork and fried it up in a skillet. I seasoned it with salt, pepper, and some parsley. I put some rice on and quartered a fresh cabbage which I steamed. This was a pleasant surprise but not a pleasant odor. Cabbage smells like a fart but it tasted earthy. I sprinkled it with salt and pepper and let it just get soft enough to be a compliment to my pork. It also still had some nutrients in it which was the healthy part of my meal. After it all came to a end, this was the first meal in a long time I made all on my own. It was rather good. I think I will wrap more things in bacon.

What about wrapping pigs feet in bacon?
Mmmmm. Think about it?
