We are bacon-a-holics around here. We eat bacon for breakfast, at lunch, in a pot of beans, and of course with salad.  You know the best thing about bacon? It gets my 3yr old to eat all his eggs in the morning.  For reals!  Because he knows that he’s gonna get bacon but has to… [Continue Reading]

Earlier I shared the French Dip Roast Beef Sandwich with Caramelized Onion, today, a wrap.  Wraps are fun way to do sandwiches instead of the same ol’ bread slices and they make for a pretty presentation as well.
