Potato Pancakes with Bacon and Chives
These were quite yummy. Parmesan and Sharp Cheddar were the cheeses used to bring these flavorful pancakes to life. The bacon and chives also added boatloads of flavor.
Ingredient: Bacon
Bacon has grown in popularity. It is not just for breakfast anymore. Bacon is used in both sweet and savory applications, below is a photo of bacon going into a batch of chocolate chip cookies!
Bacon comes from our friend the pig. It is a fatty meat from the belly and sides of the pig. Most bacon goes through a salting or curing process, as well as a smoking process. In my opinion, bacon is delicious and we love farm fresh bacon. You will notice a significant difference between fresh local bacon and the bacon packaged in a grocery store. Bacon has a high fat to meat ratio, it is essential for the flavor we all know and love. Save that bacon fat!

A favorite of Sarah’s, this dish is crunchy yet creamy, it’s salty, sweet, and fresh. It’s done in 30 minutes, only one pan is used, and it plates as a beautiful dish.
