Stuffed Jalapenos

Recently I did some experimental cooking – wheat-free stuffed jalapenos! I sliced each pepper in half, stuffed them with a mixture of herbed chevre and shredded sheep cheese, and rolled them in a mixture of Fiber One (I know, I know… there’s a little wheat in there… just pretend you didn’t know that) and Corn Flakes.

They were a little sweeter than normal fried jalapenos and not as spicy as I would have liked them to be, but I’ll definitely make them again.

The Versatility of Bacon

Someone in my office sent out this link today showing a new and exciting use for bacon.

I give you… the Bacon Cup!

Bacon Cups

Now, anyone who knows me probably has heard how much I love bacon. Just about any food, in my opinion, can be greatly improved with the addition of a strip of bacon (btw – I also feel this way about avocado, but to a slightly lesser degree). This clever person has just made my day by showing me that I can now not only eat my bacon, but use it as serving ware for my next soirĂ©e!

ps – Bacon fits brilliantly into my new diet restrictions. Yippee!
