Ingredients
  

  • 10 pieces bacon + ½ cup chopped
  • 2 cups Tuscan kale

  • In a pan, sauté ½ cup bacon, kale, mushrooms, bell pepper, and thyme over medium heat for about 15 minutes, or until bacon is crisp and vegetables tender.
  • Beat 5 eggs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spread vegetable mixture in a 9-inch pan greased with coconut oil, then add eggs to fill in the cracks.
  • Form bacon lattice over the top. To start, lay 4 slices of bacon horizontally. Then weave in the other 6 pieces in an under-over pattern, alternating with under or over with each piece. Brush pieces with maple syrup.
