Daily’s Precooked Bacon: Tips & Tricks
Everything’s better with bacon…especially when it’s on sale! Daily’s Hickory Smoked Precooked Bacon Slices (#4835) has been one of our bestselling products for well over a decade. Not only does it save on cleaning up a huge mess, but it also considerably cuts down cook time!
Daily’s Precooked Bacon: Tips & Tricks
- Cut directly into soups. Yes, you read that right! Since this product is already cooked, use Zyliss Multi-Purpose Scissors (#1803) to cut directly into the pot a few minutes before serving. It just needs to be heated through.
- Warm it up in a waffle iron. Use the leftover grease for making waffles instead of a non-stick spray! *Precooked bacon doesn’t leave a ton of grease, so you may need a little bit of non-stick spray if desired.
- Weave it and heat it. Bacon weaves can be used as a simple swap in lots of low-carb recipes, such as using as a taco shell or pizza crust.
Recipes we love:
- Throw on a BLT. While your bread is toasting, heat up a few pieces of bacon in the microwave. Lunch will be ready in under 10 minutes!
- Crumble on salads. You can warm it up, or simply crumble and toss. For some salads, it works great cold!
- Mix into pasta. Great for dishes like carbonara.
- Sprinkle into omelets. There’s no need to spend time cooking bacon to add to your omelet! Simply add-in with the veggies and sautee until heated through before adding the egg mixture.
- Stack on burgers. While your burgers are on the grill, throw a few slices in the microwave. So easy!
- Add to baked beans. Simply cut directly into the pot for an easy addition.
- Sprinkle on baked potatoes. Make a steakhouse-approved baked potato at home! Top with sour cream, shredded cheese, chives, and diced bacon.
- Add to casseroles. Our favorites are Breakfast Casserole and Tater Tot Casserole, but the options are endless.
- Use as a breakfast staple! Whether you’re serving waffles, dutch babies, breakfast burritos, or casseroles, bacon is the perfect addition to breakfast.
A blend of bell peppers, onions and bacon enveloped in fluffy eggs. We like adding cheese and more veggies, too!
