Ingredients
  

  • 8 Slices Bacon Diced
  • 1 tablespoon Onion Diced
  • 5 tablespoon Minced Garlic
  • 1 ½ Cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 Pound Broccoli Florets
  • 1 Cup Mozzarella Shredded

Instructions
 

  • Cook the bacon in a skillet until it's done. Take out the bacon and let the grease drain on a paper towel.
  • Add the chopped onion to the skillet (use the bacon grease to cook it!) and cook it for 2-3 minutes.
  • Put the florets in the skillet and let it cook for about 3 minutes. It should be bright green in color. Add in the garlic and stir.
  • Pour the cream into the skillet and reduce the heat to low. This will help the cream thicken up and should take about 3-4 minutes.
  • Once the sauce has thickened up, add in the bacon and toss to combine all the ingredients.
  • Add mozzarella cheese and let it melt. Top with more bacon and even chives or green onions.

Notes

Small Florets: Make sure that when you're cutting the florets, you make them smaller in size. You want to be able to eat them without feeling like you're chewing on a giant tree!
