Buttermilk Cluster Rolls with Toasted Pecans and Bacon
Here’s my take on a popular recipe for Buttermilk Cluster rolls.
These rolls are crusty on the outside, soft and moist on the inside—and dotted with bits of bacon and toasted pecans.
Prosciutto and Basil Wrapped Chicken Fingers
These chicken fingers are fast food, Mouse-House style. They’re the perfect thing to make when you Just Need To Eat, Like Now (a fairly common occurrence at our place these days, given that we just moved).
Bacon, Basil & Tomato Pizza
Homemade pizza is one of my favorite ways to feed a crowd. This particular pizza combines two of my favorite things: bacon and cheese. Think of it as a mouthwatering take on a BLT in pizza form.
Maple Sugar Candied Bacon
I know. Here I am again, going on about bacon. (I can admit it. I might have a problem.) Ever since I made candied bacon with a chili and peach jam glaze a few weeks ago, I can’t get the stuff of my mind. This time, I wanted to try a different method. (All in the name of science, you understand.)
Couscous Salad with Bacon and Cremini Mushrooms
This dish combines the deep, earthy flavors of fried bacon and caramelized cremini mushrooms with the crispness of red pepper and green onion. It’s easy to make and gets even better overnight as the flavors mingle.
Peppery BLT with Prosciutto
What’s better than a bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich? How about a BLT loaded with thick-cut bacon, paper-thin prosciutto and peppery watercress—then slathered with thick, tangy homemade mayonnaise? Here’s how to build a nice, fat sandwich that not only tastes great, but is designed to stay together when you eat it.
Hot & Spicy Candied Bacon
So, this is bacon…covered in jam and dotted with chili flakes…baked in the oven until caramelized and crunchy. This is swoon inducing food. Vegetarians aside, I dare you to say otherwise.
Bacon & Garlic Encrusted Roast Pork Loin
What’s better than roasted pork? How about roasted pork wrapped in crisp bacon? I know. That’s kind of what I thought, too. (Pig x 2!).
This is so simple, but so delicious. (This is one of my favorite roast beasts, along with my Deli-Style Roast Beef.)
With most pigs bred as lean as they are these days, [...]
Warm & Smokey Asparagus Salad
Fresh asparagus is one of my favorite signs of spring. This salad is a fabulous, no fuss way to enjoy it. Whip it up when you start cooking dinner, then let the flavors happily meld together while you finish preparing the rest of your meal.
Asparagus and bacon are a match made in heaven.
For this dish, [...]
Smokey Black Bean Soup with Orange & Cilantro
It’s been freezing here in Boston for the last week or so, which has put me in serious comfort-food mode.
I’ve had a few days off, and have been able to flit in and out of the kitchen, tending to hearty, slow-cooking dishes. (Hehe…Hooray for vacation! I’m just sad it has to end.)
This is a fantastically [...]
