Bacon Wraps
"When I was young I use to help my mother out in the kitchen, mostly on holidays when we were preparing a big feast for the family. I do remember that we often made these scrumptious treats for family, but I do not have any recollection of where this recipe came from. I hope you enjoy these simple treasures as much as my family does."

We always made this in my family as well. People are always aprehensive at first, but once they pop these delicious morsels i their mouth they fall in love!! I have a slight variation. I spread the cream cheese on the bread , roll it up and then wrap the bacon around. I also find it works best with slightly stale bread (doesn't tear as much when spreading the cream cheese) ENJOY!!!! -
Absolutely delicious!!! I made these for my mom and one of her friends when they came over for lunch. Everybody loved them, even my picky sister. I did have to bake them about 30 minutes to get them crispy. Also I only cut the bread in 3 slices because it was to thin for my taste. Great recipe, thanks for posting it, I will make this again.

I am a recent graduate of the California Culinary Academy majoring in hospitality management, my career interests include events planning and production, I have worked at many high end events and love the culinary/hospitality field. Coming from a loving northern Italian family, food for me is a passion. My mother instilled great morals for the appreciation of food and life in its entirety. I believe that to be able to love what you do is the fundamental of life, and to eat fine food is to be close to god. At home I am most content when I am cooking a loving meal for my boyfriend or he is accompanying me by helping out in the kitchen (romance lives on). I once learned you should never bestow a negative thought or attitude when preparing a meal, love must conquer all and so it shall come forth in the food you prepare.
