JenI’ve been a little MIA lately – still working on simplifying other things in my life! 😊 I chose bacon for the challenge this week with no particular idea in mind on how I was going to use it. I found this recipe for bacon cheeseburger pasta, and it turned out really good. It definitely goes in the “keep” pile!! And it was pretty easy too. ZaneNikitaOddly enough, we don't eat a lot of bacon in our house. So for this week's challenge, I decided to upgrade the bacon and buy it from the meat counter versus the vacuum-sealed brand packs. The thick-cut Black Pepper Bacon was giving me some side-eye, so I bought a pound of it with the intent of making my homemade Baked Beans. Fast forward a few days and my girlfriend gave me a beautiful selection of homegrown tomatoes that were ripening quickly. THAT'S when the challenge became a no-brainer. BLTs hopped on the menu for a very special lunch. Nothing too special going on here except fancy bacon, homegrown maters, crisp lettuce, and mayo on toast. It was simple. It was crunchy. It was delicious. GeorgiaMmmm.. Bacon... Meat candy! So I don't normally keep bacon in the house unless I have something specific I'm going to make something using bacon. So I used it in meals. The first was for breakfast. A bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. The second was dinner. Bbq chicken wrapped in bacon grilled to perfection. Or slightly above perfection CammyI did Saturday bites this week without even realizing it. Just as I was thinking "Oh Crap, I forgot again," I realized that I made this Apple Bacon Cheddar Frittata for dinner one night. Win, Win! Especially since it ended up tasting really good in spite of burning it on the bottom! MandyWho doesn't LOVE bacon?
Nevermind. Ain't nobody got time for people like that in our lives. Until next week, Jen, Zane, Nikita, Georgia, Cammy and Mandy
