Snow is in the forecast here<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cold weather is coming down the pike. We’re to have snow this weekend, so I’m prepping for it. This dish is a quick one to fix, just add a good green salad and some nice, crusty bread with butter, and good company, and you’ll be home.<\/p>\n

Normally, this dish is made with eggs instead of a cream sauce, but this version is quite good when you’re truly hungry and it’s cold outside. And of course, the most important ingredient, aside from the company of friends and family, is BACON!!<\/p>\n

\u00bc cup of sliced green onions<\/p>\n
