If you really are interested in teaching, but MORE interested in research, make time to contact a local community college biology/science department wherever you end up and ask them about teaching one course as an adjunct. It doesn't pay all that much to start, but you do accrue seniority and increased pay as you do it more. And you can have classes at night or on weekends - usually those meet only once or twice a week. Sometimes you can teach only the lecture part, or only the lab, if that's what you want (lecture tends to pay more, despite most of us thinking lab is more work grading).
As I've said, if you're ever interested, I'll hook you up at my place. :) Bio 101's always needed, but sometimes we're looking for Microbio people too, or Anatomy and Physiology, or Ecology, or Integrated Science II (biology and the environment).
