Bacon Wrapped Sweet Potato Skewers
The other day my husband mentioned going to a local Baconfest event (bands, fun, & bacon), but we didn’t manage to make it. So with friends, we decided to have our OWN BaconFest that evening! My cool friend Beth made these an an appetizer, and after oohing and aahing I insisted on stealing the recipe! Like a retro rumaki, but with sweet potato inside. To give credit where due, my friend got th…

Hot ‘n’ Smoky Baked Beans
This is an adaptation of a recipe that appeared in Bon Appetit magazine back in the late ’90s. I think it might have even been a Memorial Day issue. Or maybe it was the 4th of July. Anyway, I made it that year and have been making it every year since. What makes it special and unique (and also one-of-a-kind, if I may be redundant) is that it uses chipotle peppers in adobo sauce for that extra somethin’…

Quick Dinner Idea: The Bacon Dinner Salad
Brainstorming on what’s for dinner? A tasty and hearty dinner salad is a easy light dinner, perfect for a summer evening when you don’t really want to cook. Well, I did cook Bacon for this one, but hey.. it’s BACON! Salads are great way to use up leftovers. Have 1 chicken breast left over from dinner yesterday? Chopped up it can top several salads. In fact, I like to plan for this by cooking…
Fluffy Corn Cakes with Bacon and Maple Syrup
When I saw this I said ‘mmmmm bacon…’ and was inspired. No, I haven’t made it yet, but it is SO on the list! (It would have been great for Bacon Week, right?) So check out this yummy offering from The Runaway Spoon! Breakfast for Dinner. Who doesn’t love the thought? I particularly like a good breakfast for dinner, because I am NOT a morning person, and generally way too lazy to c…
Shrimp & Bacon, over Sour Cream Grits
I present a delightful light dinner, that works equally well for fancy or family. This fabulous combination was born of a lack of time, and what happened to need to be used in my fridge. It was pronounced yummy by the 4 year old, even! And the whole thing came together in less than 30 minutes. Due to the bacon and sour cream, it’s not the healthiest dish on the planet (although I did use light sour cream…

Bacon Wrapped Cheese Filled Figs!
Foodwhirl friend Talk of Tomatoes sends us the lovely idea for Bacon Week! Grilled food is always fun, and as Janelle points out, there’s nothing wrong with grilling in the winter.. I have been told—even chastised—for not heating up the grill in the dead of winter. I am beginning to heed that advice, taking off the grill cover once in awhile for a seafood or beef marinated skewer, some easy to make burg…
