  1. These are awesome! I am always looking for appetizer ideas. Have you ever tried water chestnuts, wrapped in bacon baked in a brown sugar, ketchup sauce? MMMMMM!!!

  2. So my mom would put raw bacon in a circle on the inside of muffin tins… then put ketchup on the bottom and crack an egg on top, and then put salt, pepper and red pepper flakes on top of the raw egg….. do this for all the muffin tins and put them in the oven! They are little bacon wrapped delicious breakfast treats!!

    1. Oh, man. Delicious breakfast treats might be an understatement. Ordering new muffin tins now….

  3. I LOVE Bacon!. Believe it or not at my local sandwich shoppe, they name a sandwich after me. It was your #10 on a toasted onion roll. Yummy. Lorri is famous for her generous use of bacon a a sandwich.

    And of course, my fav breakfast…pancakes & bacon. But I will have to try some of your other ideas

    1. How do you go about getting a sandwich named after you? That should go on your list of lifetime accomplishments. I’ve added to my “bucket list.”

      Too funny.
