My husband and I have a couple of irons in the fires so to speak at the moment so needless to say things are rather hectic. A couple of days ago we had an earlier morning meeting so decided to stop on the way for breakfast. I talk a lot about pea meal bacon on this blog because not only do I make cure it from the pork loin but it is a low fat, fast cooking alternative to regular bacon. It's perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner making pea meal bacon a very versatile meat as well.
Breakfast
In most of southern Ontario if you order breakfast you have a choice of meat usually sausage, ham or bacon with pea meal bacon being an extra charge. The average price for 2 eggs with pea meal bacon, home fries, toast and coffee is $6. Pictured is the breakfast I had during our recent stop which is typical of any breakfast featuring pea meal bacon, even homemade. It is a substantial meal well worth the money. The best places to looks for this value meal are truck stops, homestyle cooking restaurants and small mom & pop breakfast only cafes. The breakfast only cafes offer excellent breakfast deals usually opening about 6 AM then closing by 11 AM. Despite their limited hours they are well worth stopping at.
