Bacon, Sweet Potato Pomegranate Power Bowl

Bacon, Sweet Potato and Pomegranate Power Bowl – yes, I made a healthy dish with bacon.

Read on- this recipe is PACKED with healthy goodness that tastes great and is good for you!

This bacon, sweet potato and pomegranate power bowl is one heck of a power food recipe. Sweet potatoes, spinach, shallots, goat cheese, pomegranate arils and- BACON! How could you go wrong? This is a healthy meal disguised as a naughty one. Don’t worry- I won’t tell ????

I made bacon, sweet potato and pomegranate power bowl recently at the Indianapolis Home Show and man- was it ever a hit! I made this recipe times 3 and every last little bit was sampled out. I handed out almost 100 recipe cards not to mention samples of cooked Maple Leaf Farms duck bacon. People loved the fact that it tasted great AND was lower in fat than traditional bacon. I loved that I made what amounted to a salad with bacon and cheese and it met all of my nutritional goals without going over. BOOM.

Do you like guacamole? Do you like bacon? If so,tune in to @wthrcom on MONDAY at noon- I’ll be making @mapleleaffarms duck bacon guac with @scottwthr and talking about the @homeshows #indyhomeshow
