SUGAR AND SPICE BACON (OR TURKEY BACON)
This is how I fix bacon for scrambles, breakfast sandwiches, and just for munching. It is sweet, smokey, salty and just a tad spicy. I especially love it on Turkey Bacon because it makes boring old Turkey Bacon new again!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*.
- Place bacon slices on a cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
- Mix together remaining ingredients. If you are using regular bacon, you may want to add garlic powder instead of garlic salt. I always use the lower sodium bacon and Turkey bacon, so I feel like I can add the garlic salt :).
- Remove from oven, flip bacon and sprinkle this side generously with sugar mixture. Return to oven for 5-7 minutes, until bacon is looking fairly crisp, but not completely done.
- Remove from oven and flip bacon again. Sprinkle this side with sugar mixture and return to oven until bacon reaches your desired doneness. (I usually allow about 5 more minutes.
- Remove bacon to paper towel lined plate to use in other recipes or start digging in, being careful not to burn your little fingers on the melty sugar!
SUGAR AND SPICE BACON AND EGG SCRAMBLE
These are my DH's favorite eggs, full of sugary bacon, honey ham, and cheddar cheese. You can even make them healthy using Eggbeaters, turkey bacon and reduced fat cheddar cheese. I use my Sugar and Spice Bacon (or Turkey Bacon) recipe for the bacon

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, half and half, and honey mustard.
- In a skillet over medium low heat, melt butter. (I have omitted the butter and used a spray of Pam in a non-stick pan and they still tasted pretty good--not AS good, but still good) Grate garlic into butter and cook until slightly golden. Add eggs and stir gently. If any sign of browning occurs, reduce heat further and cook until beginning to set, but still very wet.
- Add pepper, bacon, ham and cheese. Scramble in gently and cook to desired doneness. I like mine a bit wet, but DH will not eat them unless they are completely dry :) Season with salt to taste.
- Serve with an additional drizzle of honey mustard or Hines 57 sauce, or if you love sweet and savory, drizzle a bit of maple syrup on top and enjoy! Good with a light and fluffy biscuit or some crispy hashbrowns.
