Bacon is one of those food staples that go with almost anything. Does your salad taste bland? Add some bacon. Need a little extra boost to your potato hash? Bacon will do the trick! Especially now that I’m dairy-free for the third time (thanks to nursing another baby who doesn’t tolerate it), I do a lot of replacing the flavor cheese gives to meals with avocados and bacon. If I think Mr. Hungry might not be into a recipe, I add bacon. BAM!  All of a sudden, I can get him to eat anything, even Brussels sprouts! 

That’s why I thought reposting and updating this bacon recipe round-up right before Father’s Day would be helpful for you guys.  So if you didn’t find anything in my 50 Father’s Day recipe round-up earlier this week, take a scroll. I bet you’ll find something here! If you are looking for something to make Dad for Father’s Day, bacon should and must be on the plate.
