I'm thinking about changing our name to Broccoli & Bacon – I'm totally obsessed with the combo. In fact, I almost made broccoli wrapped in bacon, but I decided that would be too weird. Bacon wrapped things always sound better than the end result.I made a light sauce with white wine and lemon juice, and then topped it with lemon rind to add some brightness. The Peperoncini from Terroni brought the heat.
Even though I'm vegetarian I remember bacon being the S@#T. I say wrap whatever you want in bacon, it will for sure taste delicious. Don't tell PETA I said so.
