Preparation:

    Step 1
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). To cook bacon using the "Mauro method," line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the bacon on the parchment and bake until crisp, about 20 minutes. This will ensure the fat fries the bacon to a perfect crisp, but won't come into contact with the metal baking sheet and cause splatter. Drain the bacon on paper towels and let it cool. Once the fat has cooled, use it or simply discard it along with the paper towels. The baking sheet is clean!
  • Step 2
  • Crumble the bacon into a bowl. Gently stir in the eggs, mayonnaise, green onions, mustard, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Eat the salad as is or make avocado and tomato sandwiches on toasted croissants.
