This dish proves that small - very small - amounts of protein mixed with vegetables and carbs can make a frugal dish a singular delight.  

Called 'Bacon & Egg Pie' in some North American Chinese restaurants, the dish makes good use of a few slices of back bacon and a solitary egg.  The bacon - two slices minimum, 3 if you're living dangerously - adds a glorious saltiness but the fat is removed to reduce calories.  The egg adds its own sauce.
