Fresh Breakfast Sandwich

Looking for something to spruce up your morning bacon and eggs? This quick recipe is just what you need. I made these little biscuits and we enjoyed them with our pulled pork for dinner, and our breakfast the next morning. I found the recipe here and made it more Paleo friendly. The recipe called for almond flour. In the picture posted on their site the biscuit is pretty light in color, so I think they used bleached almond flour. Mine turned out darker, but I am sure they taste the same.

Fresh Breakfast Sandwich
biscuits:
1 cup almond flour
4 egg whites
1/3 cup butter
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
sandwich ingredients:
Bacon (pre-cooked)
Eggs (pre-cooked)
Mustard

Pre-Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix flour and butter until the two are blended, making little pea-sided bits. Add the egg whites, salt, and baking powder. Stir until all the ingredients are combined. Scoop batter onto greased baking sheet. Your scoops should be the desired size of your biscuits. Bake for 20 minutes or until the tops are slightly golden.

Once your biscuits are baked, cut them in half, and assemble your breakfast. I used mustard, eggs and bacon. Simple and delicious! Enjoy!

Honey Mustard Salad Dressing

A few of us from the gym recently went in on a pig together and now my freezer has lots of delicious organic bacon in it. I made this salad dressing that I found from Health-Bent. I changed up my ingredients because of what was in my fridge (story of my cooking life - ha), and I wanted more protein. Basically, I just used the dressing recipe, but the full thing looks delicious. This dressing is ah-ma-zing. Because it is mainly bacon fat, you will want to eat it warm. Once it cools down the liquid will solidify a bit, making it a little less appealing. I cooked the bacon in my skillet first, drained the majority of the fat for the dressing, and cooked my ground beef in the same pan. It gave my beef a more "bacony" taste which was perfect in this salad. 

*Remember any toxin an animal eats is cleaned out of their bodies and stored in their fat. So if you are eating a non-organic, non-grassfed animal you want to limit the amount fat you eat. Because bacon has so much fat, I would recommend you find the best quality meat you can before making this recipe.  

Check out the recipe here, and enjoy!
