Here is how you make Fried Corn Meal w/Bacon and Walnuts:

This receipe makes 4 servings and it is easy to slice equally once it is cooled into a loaf pan and popped out whole. Slice it about 3/4"- 1" thick so it doesn't fall apart while frying.To start, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. In another cup add 1/2 cup corn meal to 1 cup of water and combine, (salt optional). Slowly pour the water corn meal mix slowly into boiling water stirring constantly. Cook until thickened, stirring frequently. COVER, continue cooking over LOW heat 5 minutes; stir. Spray a small loaf pan with a non-stick coating and pour corn meal mix into that. Put into the refrigerator and allow to cool until it comes out a single piece . Overnight is best, but I usually can't wait, so after about 30 minutes I slice into 4 equal pieces and flatten one like a burger and fry it up. Fry in 1/2 TBSP (or less) of oil per serving. You do need GOOD FATS in your diet and Olive Oil is one of them. Use a splatter cover. I eat mine with a 1 tsp of sugar free syrup or fruit spread. Sometimes I mash fresh fruit for my fruit serving that day and put it on top.Note: If you don't have a real mini-size loaf pan, I used my meatloaf pan and leaned it upward in the refrigerator so the mix only filled half the pan and kept checking and using spatula mashing at the end to get it straighter upright. Or just double the recipe and make 8 servings. Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JPETIE5.
