Maple Bacon
6 pieces of applewood smoked bacon
1/4 cup real maple syrup
red chili flakes
Salad
4 eggs
1 head of red leaf lettuce, torn into bite size pieces
1/4 to 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup canned cannellini beans, rinsed well
1 handful fresh flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped
1 handful chopped chives
2 handfuls basil leaves, roughly torn
Your favorite vinaigrette (homemade or store bought)
Coarse sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper

1
Preheat oven to 400 F. Place an oven proof cooling rack inside a foil-lined, lipped baking sheet or shallow roasting pan.
2
Lay the bacon slices flat on the cooling rack and brush with the maple syrup. Sprinkle a pinch of red chili flakes over each piece of bacon.
3
Roast the bacon for 25 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from oven and let the bacon cool and crisp up on the cooling rack.
4
Soft boil your eggs: in a medium saucepan, cover your eggs with cool water. Bring to a boil. As soon as the water starts to boil, turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for a full 15 minutes while you assemble the rest of the salad.
5
In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, red onion, beans and herbs. Dress with your favorite vinaigrette and toss to thoroughly combine.
6
Plate the salad in 4 salad bowls. Crumble 1 and a half pieces of the maple bacon over each bowl.
7
Peel your eggs and slice them each in half. Place two halves on the top of each salad, yolks facing up. Sprinkle the eggs with a pinch of coarse sea salt and some cracked black pepper. Serve immediately.
