In Chop Happy land, bacon is a vegetable, and this is just one way I like to vegetable-ize: mix crispy bacon with sweet coconut milk and kale. This recipe is inspired by my absolute favorite appetizer at a wonderful restaurant in the Hamptons called East Hampton Grill. They make an amazing creamed spinach topped with a chicken fried oyster, so I decided to recreate this spinach with a few decadent tweaks of my own.

I use kale because it is really easy to cook. With fresh spinach, you have to cook down a huge amount to get enough for this recipe, and if you use frozen spinach, you have to defrost and drain. With kale, you just drop it in. The coconut milk adds a touch of tropical sweetness. I hope you love this recipe as much as we do! Happy comfort food-cooking!

    I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article. https://accounts.binance.bh/register/person?ref=IXBIAFVY
