I found myself starting a million different things from scratch over the last 40 years. College, parenting, marriage, divorce, dating after divorce, letting my kids grow up and move out, remarrying a wonderful man, and letting that man turn my backyard into a farm!
I want to incorporate all these new beginnings into my blog because life is from scratch no matter how prepared you think you may be for it. A couple of years ago my son said I should start a blog. We bounced around some names; moms manic musings was in the mix! But I think since I already have this one started we can turn it from just cooking into loving, living, cooking and building our lives from scratch and yes we will still have recipes!
Here's one that is sure to be a crowd pleaser that I found floating around Facebook. I made some changes but I've included the original link I used below.
Bacon Shots
Ingredients:
Bacon- 2 packages
Keilbasa- 2 packages
Brown Sugar- about 1/2 cup
Cajun Seasoning- how hot do you like it?
Bourbon- 1/2 cup or so
Cut both packages of bacon in half. Lay flat in a baking dish and pour bourbon over them. Let soak 2 hours or overnight.
Cut the Kielbasa into 1 inch pieces and wrap with bacon leaving a "cup" at the top. Place on a cookie sheet or back in the baking dish with the bourbon.
Mix brown sugar and Cajun seasoning together and using a teaspoon fill the "cup" you created with the bacon and Kielbasa.
Bake in a 400 degree oven for approximately 20 minutes until bacon is crisp.
Notes: you may want to spray the bottom of the pan with non stick cooking spray. They delicious 'lil snacks do stick a little.
