Cooking Tips
Canadian bacon is often sold pre-cooked. If yours is raw, ensure it's cooked thoroughly before consuming.
Pan-fry it until lightly browned and heated through for a quick breakfast.
Dice it and add to omelets, frittatas, or scrambled eggs.
Use it in place of regular bacon for a leaner option in sandwiches and wraps.

Common Mistakes
Mistaking it for regular streaky bacon; Canadian bacon is leaner and comes from a different part of the pig.
Overcooking it, which can make it dry and tough.
