Maple Bacon Grits

1/2 cup powdered milk (use NIDO ** )
1/2 cup maple syrup
pinch of salt

Add dry ingredients to boiling water, reduce heat

cook for 5 minutes, when it's the consistency of oatmeal (there's that word again)

add bacon, I now use Oscar Meyer REAL bacon bits in the 3 oz packet. approx $ 1.50 at Wal-Mart

Stir in the bacon and enjoy.

PS ( ** -- NIDO is dry whole milk. Since it is whole milk it is far, far better tasting than powdered skim milk. I buy my Nestle NIDO at the WalMart Super Center...it's stocked in the Mexican foods aisle....comes in a 14oz can with a yellow and red label.)
