I love when my friends email me goodies like this:
Battered & Breaded Bacon Strips
Lather cold bacon strips in buttermilk or whipping cream, then cover strips with cornmeal flour. Drop into hot oil in a pan or deep fryer.
Pineapple Bacon
Mix pineapple, honey, sugar, salt with blender. Glaze bacon and bake in oven. Add pineapple chunks to finished product.
Garlic Bacon
Sprinkle bacon strips with garlic powder or garlic salt and cool for a couple hours. Add minced garlic cloves to bacon while frying or baking. When finished, lightly glaze with butter.
Chocolate-covered Bacon
Combine chocolate chip morsels, tsp or so of vanilla extract, dark corn syrup in double boiler. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly until contents melt. Add cooked bacon strips or chopped bacon. Remove strips with tongs or spoon for chopped chunks, place onto wax paper. Chill in fridge.
Peppered Bacon
Mix chopped jalapeno peppers, black pepper, red pepper flakes, honey and hot sauce in blender. Glaze bacon with mixture. Fry or bake (preferably bake to avoid pan mess).
Nacho Cheese Bacon
After cooking bacon, pour hot nacho cheese sauce atop strips. Add lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, sour cream and salsa. Eat with nacho chips or tortilla/pita bread.
Pizza Bacon Pita
Smear round pita bread with marinara sauce. Add cooked bacon to pita and sauce. Add any desired additional toppings. Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top. Bake in oven for 5 to 10 minutes.
McBacon and Cheese
Chop cooked bacon and add it to macaroni and cheese. Mix well.
Bacon Poppers
Wrap single strips of bacon around scoops of sour cream or cream cheese with (optional) jalapeno buried within. You can also cover the scoop of sour cream or cream cheese with chopped bacon. Place the scoops on wax paper, or put in muffin tray. Cover balls with cornmeal flour. Freeze. When ready to eat, deep fry or pan fry.
