Apple adds moistness and a touch ofsweetness to these delicious patties; pancetta, an Italian bacon, adds richness.Use an unsliced chunk of pancetta for best results.

Make these patties for a Christmas-dinner change. You can add 2 tbsp (25 mL) of crumbled bacon bits, goat cheese or grated Parmesan to the potato mixture.
You can adjust from vegetarian to meaty by adding up to 8 oz (225 g) dry chorizo sausage or a piece of lean smoky bacon or smoked turkey thigh.
All it takes is five simple ingredients to whip up these crepes for a savoury dish. Wrap or stack them with a flavourful filling combination, such as bacon, grilled chicken, avocado and tomato.
Feel free to add your own toppings, such as leftover crumbled bacon, roasted chicken or deli meats to this pizza. Cut leftovers into appetizer-size fingers and enjoy with cocktails.
You can make this hearty soup vegetarian by omitting the bacon, sautéing the veggies in olive oil instead of the bacon fat and substituting vegetable broth for the chicken broth. Use the bottom of a heavy saucepan to crush the fennel seeds, which will release their licorice-like flavour. If you don't have fresh spinach, you can use half of a 300-gram package of frozen spinach; just be sure to thaw and drain it well before stirring it into the soup.
