Panzanella Salad

Cut up a loaf  of hearty, day old bread into cubes. Dice up four tomatoes, the same size dice as the bread. Slice a half of red onion, thinly. Toss all the ingredients with olive oil and balsamic vinegar until wet.

 Let the salad sit for better flavor, but feel free to eat it right away!

Chewy Banana Chips

These are just too addictive! 

Take your over ripe bananas ( I used 5) and slice them thin.

Squeeze about 2 tsp of fresh orange juice over them and toss to evenly coat.

Bake in an oven at 225* for about a hour or until golden, carmely brown.

Store in an air tight container....Enjoy!

Bacon Jam

Yep...it is as awesome as it sounds!
This recipe is crazy easy and make the house smell great.
Get out your crockpot but leave the lid in the cabinet.

Start with a pound of bacon, sliced into inch pieces. Brown them all and save about a tbsp of fat to saute the onions. Dice up two red onions and saute in the fat. Add 1/2 cup cider vinegar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup maple syrup and 3/4 cup brewed coffee and bring to a simmer. Add the bacon back in, stir and transfer to the crockpot. I like the crockpot better than a pot on the stove because I am a champ at scorching stuff!

Let it all cook down in the crock pot for 4 hours, uncovered. Put the mixture in the food processor and pulse  until just chunky enough but spreadable. Put in airtight containers and store in the fridge up to 4 weeks...if it lasts that long!
