Bacon Bits Bliss

Grab a pack or two of bacon and get ready to spruce up some of your everyday favorite foods.

Just cook the bacon, let it cool, and break it into bits. Store it in a plastic bag and use it a little at a time.

Here are some ideas:

CUCUMBER SALAD: 3 cucumbers, a bottle of your favorite Italian or Basalmic Vinagrette, 2 cups shredded cheese, fresh ground pepper, a few shakes of tabasco sauce, and a handful of bacon bits. Makes for a GREAT Spring snack or side dish.

NACHOS: Ragu Cheddar Cheese (found in the spaghetti sauce aisle), nacho chips, and a handful of bacon bits. Delish and GREAT for entertaining.

BABY PORTABELLAS: Sautee in butter with bacon bits. Soaks up the flavor like a pro.

STEAKS ON THE GRILL: Cook steaks as desired. About 5-10 minutes before taking them off the grill, throw the bacon bits on top. Beef and bacon, who knew!





Use your imagination- bacon is a great ingredient to make your taste buds go crazy. Any other ideas? Feel free to leave your thoughts in a comment below. :)


Eat your heart out,
