Some might think bacon is a trend, but we know it’s here to stay.
Bacon is everywhere these days, and has been for a while. Although some might be getting tired of the salty, porky goodness, we just can’t get enough of it. And let’s face it – how many foods have you had where bacon didn’t work?
While we adore bacon with our Sunday pancakes, there’s always room for experimentation. Adding bacon to your favorite recipes (especially veggie-based ones) adds such a tremendous layer of flavor that it’s no wonder we’re like Pavlov’s dog when it comes to the smell of sizzling bacon.
Here’s our favorite ways to incorporate bacon into, well, everything.
