  • ¾ cup apple finely diced (honeycrisp or fuji)
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

  • Using a medium pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until lightly crisp. Set the bacon aside and reserve about 2-3 tbsp of bacon fat in the pot.
  • Add the onion and garlic and saute in the bacon fat for 4-5 minutes or until lightly translucent.
