I'm Back!

Hi everyone!  I have been way too busy lately, again, all good things.  We are in the process of moving, picking out paint colors and the like.  I have been cooking none the less but taking the time to blog has not been too easy.  So sorry for the delay in postings.  I hope some of you have stuck by me and have checked in from time to time. 

Now, onto tonights easy, easy recipe.  This may be a St. Louis recipe as I talked about this at work a while ago and no one in the office had heard of it!  Boy, was I surprised.  You will laugh at this recipe after all this build-up but it is simple but a good one.

Peanut Butter and Bacon Toast

That's all you'll need.  I bet the kids will like this one...I hope.   Just bacon, peanut butter, bread.

Start frying the bacon until desired doneness:

 

Drain the bacon on paper toweling:

Toast the bread:

While the toast is still warm from the toaster, spread on the peanut butter, it will melt a little bit.

Cut the bacon into pieces that fit nicely on the toast.

Here is the finished Peanut Butter and Bacon Toast:

Peanut Butter and Bacon Toast

Ingredients:

Peanut Butter, either crunchy or smooth, your favorite brand, I used Jif creamy.

Bread, 1 slice per

3 slices bacon, cut in half,  for 2 slices of toast (yielding three half pieces per slice of toast)

Directions:

Fry bacon to desired doneness.  Drain on paper toweling to remove excess grease.

While bacon is frying start toasting the bread.

When bread is toasted, spread on the peanut butter.  The peanut butter will melt a little bit adding to the delicousness. 

When bacon is still warm but not too hot to handle, cut bacon strips in half.  Add three halves to each slice of bread, on top of the peanut butter.

I usually serve this with some fruit and a nice cold glass of milk.

Try this for a comfort food type breakfast. 

Enjoy!

Note:

My Mom would make this for us on occasion by spreading the peanut butter onto untoasted bread, then adding uncooked bacon and placing them under the broiler to cook.  This yields a soft bottom instead of the toasted bread, but it does brown up the peanut butter a little bit while it cooks the bacon.  I prefer the toasted and assembled version like outlined here.  Be careful if you choose to make it like Mom's, as the bacon and peanut butter combination cooks up fast under the broiler.
