Next up in the meat trials, canadian bacon. Regular bacon’s friendly and possibly socialist northern neighbor. I know the standard thing to do when you have canadian bacon is to make eggs benedict, but we didn’t have english muffins. I also couldn’t really bring myself to make hollandaise sauce. It involves double boilers and egg yolks and craziness, and when I get back from a long run and I’m super hungry, Jesus Christ himself could not convince me I needed to waste precious time making some involved sauce.
So I went more standard, and I used some healthy wrappy type bread I found in our freezer. Not going to lie, was not a huge fan of the stupid wrappy rolly thing. But the contents within? They were wonderful. 2 eggs, swiss cheese, canadian bacon, avocado, tomato, tabasco, salt and pepper.
Conclusions? Canadian bacon loses to regular bacon because of the crunch factor. Canadian bacon also loses to ham because I’m a sucker for a thin slice. Avocado always wins. Swiss cheese loses to cheddar because of the tang factor. Fresh tomatoes + tabasco win over ketchup. Healthy wrap bread is the suck.
We’re getting closer kids. I can feel it. I think next time I need to do some experimenting with sausage. And potatoes. And peppers! And bacon. And butter. And bacon and butter and bacon and butter.

Didn’t we get you one of those Yale xc shirts saying “we eat carbs”? Lady, stay away from any bread product involving “healthy” and “wrap.” Tsk, you should know better. (although I am sitting here remembering one fantastic breakfast burrito enjoyed by all which came in a wrapping of sorts, but which was decidely ok by any standard.)
