Repurposing

Back in February I wrote that a certain type of camping toaster is a worthless piece of crap. I didn't know—until today—why I hadn't throw it out when I found a great replacement.

It makes a good anti-splatter lid when cooking bacon. The holes let out steam and the wire bread support thingies make an excellent handle far from the heat. Now, if it were just self-cleaning.

    A friend fries her bread in a skillet the same way you make grilled cheese sandwiches. Voila! Toast! Wonder what would happen if you fried your bread in the bacon grease? Sounds tempting to me.

      Funny you should mention it. This morning, after the bacon and eggs were done, I fried up some naan in the last of the bacon grease. Yummy. My doctor is shaking his head in disgust.

      LOL.
      I'm a part - timer. Bacon is the best! But I find sausage simpler, more left overs, and less clean up.

      p.s. I should have said that TOAST (not bacon) is what originally caught my eye. Quality toast whilst Vanning is a very large challenge.
