Pigs on a log?
I was in the middle of making dinner tonight, stir-fry teri flank steak with various veg and fresh pineapple chunks, jasmine rice, toasted almonds. I had some celery out and usually treat myself to the tiny tender hearts while cooking, chef’s privilege. I had this thought - “ants on a log” - celery, PB and raisins - threw a piece of bacon in the wok while heating, took celery, painted in some natural crunchy PB, crumbled cooked bacon on top. Quite good. DH came in from dog-walking and caught me. Had to fix one for him. Quite acceptable - crunchy, salty, smokey. I could even see Ants and Pig on a Log for a touch more of sweet.
