Bacon Food Porn and a Primal-Friendly Cheddar Spread

Yes, that is a wonderful sight: A plate full of freshly cooked bacon.

Now, far be it from me to tell you what to do with your bacon, but if you are planning on inviting people over and you want to keep things Primal (meaning, this will contain dairy), I have just the dip for you.






1 pound of sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 Package of sliced almonds
2 bunches of green onions
1 pound of bacon
Mayonnaise, freshly made with olive oil or coconut oil and eggs, or if you have enough bacon grease use that to make the mayo

Cook the bacon so that it looks like the above. The crunchier the better.
While the bacon is cooking, slice the green onions nice and thin.
Once the bacon is done, don't get rid of the grease yet, you will be using some in the dip.
Put the cheddar cheese into a large mixing bowl with the almonds.
Then chop up the bacon, crunch it up, use a mortar....however you want to do it.
Add the chopped bacon to a mixing bowl with the cheddar cheese and almonds.
Add the sliced green onions.
Add enough mayonnaise to bind and hold it all together, but not too much to make it soupy.
Mix it all together, adding a few spoonfuls of pure bacon grease to added flavor and to keep it from getting too dry.
Once done, let it refrigerate for a few hours to let the flavors blend better.

You can cheat and eat it with tortilla chips, or make some paleo/primal friendly crackers to go along with it.
