Day 14 of the Bacon-atarian Challenge: Chicken-and-Bacon Wraps

Day 14

Recap: My wife's friends are doing a 21-day vegan challenge. She decided to counter that with a 21-Day Bacon Everyday Challenge. The catch is that we can't have bacon the same way twice.

Day 1: Crumbled bacon on our hamburgers. Wifey had hers with bleu cheese, mine was American. Plus lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup and mustard.

Day 2: Bacon-wrapped tenderloin! Cooked in the oven and then thrown on the grill for a couple of minutes. A perfect medium rare. So tender, so delicious. Much better than bean sprouts or whatever plants my wife's friends ate.

Day 3: Pizza with pineapple and bacon. Baseball season has started and tonight we had two practices - same thing on Tuesdays - so it was a quickie dinner.

Day 4: Chocolate covered bacon. Yes, I know, it sounds disgusting. Well, it sounded disgusting to me anyways. Wifey has been wanting to try this for years, and the Bacon-atarian Challenge was her perfect opportunity, and a party we were at last night was the perfect time for it. Melted semi-sweet chocolate chips completely covering cooked thick-cut bacon strips. The verdict? People either loved it or hated it. Definitely worth trying once, I would say.

Day 5: Patty Cakes. These are leftover mashed potatoes mixed with an egg, bacon, cheese, onion powder, salt and pepper. Kind of like a fried twice-baked potato pancake. Not too bad.

Day 6: Tossed Salad with Bacon. No explanation needed.

Day 7: Breakfast for Dinner. Simple bacon strips matched with pancakes and hash brown patties. Simple, yet effective.

Day 8: Bacon-Potato Soup, with melted cheddar cheese, parsley and celery. Not the type of thing you'd expect with warm weather, but three of us are under the weather.

Day 9: Deviled Eggs made with bacon, a little sugar, mayo and balsamic vinegar.

Day 10: Southern Smokehouse Burger from Chili's Grill & Bar Restaurant. With maple bacon, smoked cheddar, mayo, crispy onion strings and ancho-chile BBQ sauce.

Day 11: Chocolate-chocolate chip-bacon cookies. They are really good.

Day 12: Peppered Bacon and Tomato Linguine. Extremely tasty.

Day 13: BLTs, an All-American Classic.

Day 14: Chicken-and-Bacon Wraps. Kinda whipped this one up. Heated up some frozen popcorn chicken, cut it into small slices, then threw it on a flour tortilla. Added some lettuce, swiss cheese, mayo with olive oil mixed in and tomato slices. Oh, and a generous helping of bacon bits. Very, very tasty.
