Heck, I don't even like to waste food byproducts... like bacon grease.Thus when I had bacon yesterday I kept the grease in the pan and had fried eggs later.
And this morning I still had grease leftover, but I had run out of eggs... And then I looked at the cheddar cheese in my fridge and an idea sparked...
Minutes later I was grilling not one but TWO grilled cheese sandwiches in the frying pan, using the bacon grease.
And yes, it was delicious.
However on the health side of things it was so ridiculously fattening that I now feel a tad sick. I think I overdid it by making two of them (in an effort to use up more of the leftover grease) and now my arteries are going to be paying for it.
My only solution is that I shall have to exercise a lot today to work off all those extra calories I just consumed.
So my advice for other men (or women) out there is that if you are tempted to try making a grilled cheese sandwich using leftover bacon grease is JUST MAKE ONE! No need to overdo it!
I realize that men often overestimate what we can eat, even when we feel like we are starving. ie. "I could eat a horse!" But we really need to cutback on unnecessary calories when we really don't need them.
Just because we can eat that much doesn't mean we should.
:p
