Being creative..

Welcome back foodies! This week was a short one due to the holiday but was still able to make a few of my favorites. 

First up is a wonderful Sunday morning breakfast at Rounders restaurant in Mankato, Minn. I went basic and not so adventurous with this meal and got the two egg combo.

– Scrambled eggs
– Breakfast potatoes
– Sausage patties
– White toast
– Spicy Bloody Mary

I am a huge restaurant girl and I love to go out to eat, but always tend to get the same thing for each meal..something I am hoping to break soon! Next up was a dinner favorite I made for my boyfriend and I with a little twist.

For the twist, we weaved the bacon! This specific piece is nine pieces with five down and four across. It was simple to make and worked great for a BLT.
Final product! I cooked it each side for four minutes (or until you think its ready to be flipped) and tada! You have a weaved piece of bacon ready to be made into a BLT.
For the rest of the BLT you need lettuce, tomato, mayo and bread.
– Toast bread
– Spread mayo (or butter)
– Add lettuce, tomato and then the bacon weave.
– Repeat on other side of bacon and you have your weaved BLT!
Here she is! I like to eat it with chips and a fruit, this time I had grapes.

BLT is a classic dinner I like to make and it is easy enough to make when you don’t have much time.

Since I was out of town for the rest of the week, I mostly ate out or snack type of meals so this is the last homemade meal I ate last week. My boyfriend had a craving for steak so decided to make it, but quickly realized we were out of propane! So plan B was put into place..pan fry the steak.

He added his own seasonings..
– Thyme
– Garlic cloves
– Salt and pepper
The final product! We like to add mashed potatoes to a lot of meals we have and we just buy the Simply Potatoes: Homestyle from the grocery store.
We also added asparagus that we boiled in water and added parmesan cheese to!
Personally, I like my steak more medium rare than rare which this is.

Overall, this week was filled with great, yummy meals and I was even more blessed to spend the holiday weekend with friends and family. I can’t wait to get back into the swing of things and come up with new recipes to share!
