Bacon Beer Cheese Dip

bacon beer cheese dip // my bacon-wrapped life

I’m gonna go ahead and say what I know you’re all thinking.

It’s something along the lines of, “Seriously Meg, we’re THREE WEEKS into football season and you haven’t even made ONE game day-themed recipe?!” I know, I know. I’ve failed you as a food blogger. I’ve been so distracted lately by bacon fried rice and pumpkin everything that I haven’t even paid tribute to one of the greatest parts of Fall, the Great American Pastime: stuffing your face with creamy cheesy things in the middle of the day every Sunday watching football!

Luckily, I think I’ve made up for being a little late to the game (pun totally intended) today. Because I have three little words for you:

bacon + beer + cheese

I mean…it’s all 3 major football food groups, people. We can’t get any better than this.

Bacon, Onion, and Ricotta Frittata

Bacon, Onion, and Ricotta Frittata | My Bacon-Wrapped Life

I have a life lesson for you that I personally think is best learned as early in life as possible.

If you want to host a brunch and look super fancy and put together and Martha Stewart-y…make a frittata. I mean, just the word sounds fancy! It’s everything you want in a brunch dish – eggs and cheese and delicious fresh veggie things (and bacon, of course). Only you have to know that it’s really just a quiche without the work, a quick sauté and a whisk and a few minutes in the oven. Really, it’s the easiest thing in the entire world. Add a fruit salad and some mimosas and sit back and let the compliments come in!

(The Best) Croque Madame

(The Best) Croque Madame | My Bacon-Wrapped Life

You know those mornings when you just NEEEEED an epic breakfast?

Like, 90% of the time, cereal is awesome. Oatmeal is just great. Scrambled eggs = easy. Done. But every so often, Sunday morning rolls around and the usual rotation is just not going to cut it. I need something decadent, ooey-gooey, and super hearty. Usually of the cheesy or chocolaty variety. 

This croque madame is for these kinds of mornings.

Cheesy Broccoli Casserole

Cheesy Broccoli Casserole | My Bacon-Wrapped Life

Christmas is almost here, and along with present-opening, stocking-stuffing, and entire days spent in footie pajamas comes hours and hours of baking and cooking to shower friends and family with a whole lot of holiday lovin’. There is nothing I love more than baking up gifts for everyone I love, and then sharing a wonderful meal with my family on Christmas. I LOVE living in the kitchen around the holidays. Even when my “home sweet home” is 75 degrees and sunny in Southern California, all-day-every-day cooking and baking is an absolute must.
