It was new to me the first time I made it. There I stood in the
kitchen, saying to myself: "Self? What would go with turkey?"
And Self said, "Well, bacon goes with everything, balsamic goes
with bacon, and a little olive oil would keep the bacon grease
from hardening right up when it hits the cold stuff."

Of course it's ok. Change it up however you like. I add a ton
of freshly ground black pepper, but I know that you won't.
