Broccoli with Bacon and Breadcrumb Topping

This is a quick way to dress up a vegetable.

I think it would be good with cauliflower or asparagus as well.

1. Steam desired amount of broccoli in microwave.
2. Prepare topping by cutting 2 or 3 slices of bacon into 1/8th inch pieces.
3. Fry in pan until crisp.
4. Remove all but about 1 tablespoon of bacon fat from the pan.
5. Add 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs to pan.
6. Stir quickly until crumbs have absorbed fat, adding a tsp. of fat or butter if needed
7. Sprinkle topping over prepared broccoli.
