Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon
- ½ cup brown sugar
- optional fresh cracked black pepper, red pepper, cayenne pepper, sriracha
Instructions
- Add brown sugar to a shallow bowl or plate. Press each slice of bacon into the brown sugar on all sides, and place the slices on an oven safe metal rack over a lined baking dish.
- Sprinkle remaining brown sugar over the top of the bacon. If desired also add pepper.
- Bake at 350° F until bacon is crisped (about 30 minutes), watching closely to make sure the sugar doesn’t begin to burn. (If you’re using thick cut bacon, it will still be chewy when it’s done).
- Allow bacon to cool/set a few minutes before enjoying.

Ingredients:
- 16 Farm Rich Frozen Mozzarella Sticks
- 16 pieces salami, thin sliced
- 1 can crescent rolls, 8 count

Directions:
- Lay out crescent dough and cut each triangle in half (I found a pizza cutter works perfectly for this). Stretch each triangle half into a long snake. Sssssss.
- Roll a mozzarella stick with a piece of salami, then spiral a crescent dough snake around it and place on a baking sheet. Repeat until all the cheese sticks are rolled and spiraled.
- Bake on the middle rack at 450 for 12-14 minutes, until crescent rolls are nicely browned and cheese is warm and melty.
