Bacon wrapped Beer Brats


Brats.  We eat a lot of them in the summer.   Also hot dogs, kielbasa, Italian sausages.   They can get monotonous after a while.    I've done the Brat hot tub before, and I've made bacon wrapped hot dogs before, and this recipe seemed like a great combination of the two ideas.     

I added a bit of maple sugar to the liquid mixture.     We went straight Dijon mustard as a dipping sauce.  These got devoured quickly and will definitely be made again and again!   Thank you Girl Carnivore  :)

Author:

Ingredients:

  • 6 strips center cut bacon
  • 1 bottled lager- used Sam Addams Summer Ale
  • 1 tablespon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 heaping tablespoon maple sugar
  • 6  beef brats

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Bake bacon on a foil lined pan with a wire rack set inside for 10 to 15 mins. Bacon should not be crisp or cooked through. Turn oven down to 350 degrees. Blogger suggests replacing the foil, I did not have much grease so I didn't.
  2. Combine beer, worcestershire, dry mustard, garlic salt and maple sugar in a large skillet. Pierce the brats and add to the mixture. After it reaches a boil, simmer for 15 mins, making sure to flip brats for even cooking. Remove and let cool a bit so you can handle them.
  3. Wrap each brat with a slice of bacon and secure with toothpicks. Lay them on wire rack, cook for 15 to 20 mins, flipping to crisp both sides.

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try.  They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home.  I started with the whites of six eggs. You can use pasturized whites if you don't want to do the whole separating, finding a use for the yolks thing.  I beat them up with some salt and pepper. Next up, the tomato and spinach.  I used grape tomatoes, seeded them and then chopped them into 1/4" pieces. I like baby spinach, and I took about 10 leaves and chopped those up into 1/4" pieces as well. I added that to the egg mixture.  When you pour it into the pans, be sure that it all gets evenly distributed.   They bake up pretty quickly, around 9 minutes or so.  Dunkin gives you two egg bites, the mini donut serving size is three. I pop them in ziplocs in the fridge and just pull a bag and reheat them in the microwave for a quick

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Bacon and Cheddar Omelet Bites

Since I already came up with a version of Dunkin Donuts new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites for myself, I decided to make the other variety that they are offering, Bacon & Cheddar, for my husband. Super simple.  Beat up some eggs with salt and pepper.  Add in some shredded cheddar and a slice of bacon cut into 1/4" pieces (I used kitchen shears).  Bake them for about 9 minutes in sprayed mini donut pans. They baked up light and fluffy.  The bacon stayed crisp and there's just the perfect amount of cheese.   I split them up into portions in zip top bags and that way we can just grab a bag and warm them up. My husband laughed when I told him 3 is the serving size.  I'll definitely be doubling the recipe next time!

Lemon Pizzelles

  One of the first cookies I can remember eating is a pizzelle, and I'm still a huge fan today.  Even though you need a special iron to make them, the rest of it is really so simple. This time around I took the basic pizzelle recipe and instead of vanilla or anise, I used Adams lemon extract. I also used some of their yellow food coloring to distinguish them from my regular pizzelle.
