- Butter (12g)
For the Yogurt Sauce:
- Greek yogurt (5-6 tablespoons)

Instructions

- Make the Yogurt Sauce (Optional): While the rolls are cooking, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chopped onion, whole grain mustard, honey, and lemon juice in a bowl. Adjust the amount of lemon juice depending on the yogurt’s consistency. You want a slightly tangy sauce.
- Serve and Enjoy! Plate your delicious bacon roll toast. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Drizzle with the yogurt sauce for an extra flavor explosion, or enjoy it plain!
