You may think it an odd combination, but I assure you, it's delicious! Think pancakes with jam & bacon -- but not nearly so heavy. A nice savory fruit dish.

  1. 8 Italian Prune plums, halved, pits removed each half cut into quarters
  2. 2 strips bacon
  3. 1 minced green onion
  4. 1 tsp fresh minced sage leaves (approx. 2 leaves)
