A Perfect Breakfast with Wright Brand Brown Sugar Flavored Bacon

disclosure

I usually don’t spend too much time cooking breakfast for my family.  We are always rushing out the door and other than the occasional scrambled eggs for my daughter, I normally turn to quick breakfast options.  While attending SoFabCon a couple of weeks ago, I received a coupon from Wright Brand to sample their bacon products.  I came home and stashed the coupon in my wallet to use during my next visit to the grocery store.  Later in the week I went grocery shopping and spent a few minutes trying to decide which bacon product I would bring home.  I definitely made a good choice with the Brown Sugar Flavored Bacon.

Brown sugar and bacon are two completely different flavors that sounded amazing paired together.

Although it was tempting, I didn’t need to cook the entire package of bacon for our small family breakfast.  I really liked that I could easily save the remaining bacon for later in the resealable package.

The sweet smell of brown sugar had my taste buds excited while I was preparing the bacon

The sweet sugar and smoky bacon flavors tasted amazing together!  The bacon is just what our toast and scrambled eggs needed to make the perfect breakfast.

Maybe I will start cooking breakfast more often.  The Wright Brand has a big variety of flavors and I’m already planning our next morning family meal together.  Which flavor sounds best to you?

Garden Snail Lunch {Bumble Bee Tuna and cheddar tortilla roll up}

From the time my daughter was a baby she has been a very picky eater.  She is usually willing to try new things but rarely ever requests anything other than peanut butter sandwiches or tuna for lunch.  I recently shared quick tips for a beach day and showed you some of our favorite food items to bring along, including Bumble Bee Tuna Salad with Crackers.  In addition to the prepackaged meals when we are on the go, we eat a lot of other Bumble Bee food products in our home. They recently sent me a few of their products to sample and I had some fun using them to make a creative lunch for my daughter.  She loved her garden snail lunch!

I usually use Bumble Bee canned tuna in casserole dishes and the tuna pouches to pack in lunches when we are away from home.  I was excited to receive a package of both cans and pouches.

  • (1) flour tortilla
  • 1/4 cup cheddar cheese
  • tuna (can or pouch)
  • celery
  • carrots
  • raisins
  • grapes (not pictured)

Begin by spreading a layer of tuna and cheese on top of the tortilla.  Microwave for 30 seconds if you prefer melted cheese.

Roll up tortilla and roll into snail shape.

Add slices of carrots for the snail’s antennas and smile.  Use the raisin(s) for eyes.  Use half of a piece of celery and grapes to make a tree.  Slice the other half of the celery piece to make grass.

Don’t feel silly if you make a garden snail lunch plate for yourself too!  My daughter and I both enjoyed our fun lunches together.
