When out of bacon and green onions, but need to get rid of that soon-to-mold cheese or have a craving, cleaning out the frig can really be worth it. If you save bacon grease, cheating by using it to saute onions can pay off in flavor. I grabbed what seemed to fit mac and cheese. What a nice surprise. I couldn't wait for lunch.
