Turkey or Regular Bacon (4-6 strips)
Maple Syrup (1 tbsp or to taste)
Cinnamon (1 tsp or to taste)
Cooking Instructions
1. Spray cast iron (or regular) pan with olive oil and add your turkey bacon

This recipe is my new Fall favorite! I was cleaning out my fridge recently and all I had was butternut squash and turkey bacon. With it being Fall and all, I decided to top my turkey bacon and butternut squash with maple syrup and cinnamon — who knew it was so delicious. The best part is, it’s simple to make and it can really be paired with anything. You can also add your own twist on the recipe and make it with regular bacon and ground turkey like our corporate wellness director, Michelle!
