Perfect BLT Sandwich

I love bacon. I think we have been over this before but I love BLT's as they have bacon, lettuce and mayo - my faves!

So I have been trying to scheudle sandwiches in the rotation as I love them and they can be super easy when needed. So of course when I saw this recipe I had to give it at try. But of course I couldn't find basil at the store and then none of us eat tomatoes so the recipe began to change.

I also added cheese to my sandwich as well as to me that makes a sandwich even better!

I have included the instructions for the perfect bacon that I used before as it is complete perfection: http://thepioneerwoman.com/food-and-friends/how-to-cook-bacon-in-the-oven/

Then here is the link to the recipe that I began to use until I couldn't due to lack of ingredients and some personal alterations. I would like to try it again with basil as that sounds good!!

Totally yum!!

Levels of Exposure by Aimee McNeil
Release Date: December 20, 2016
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Published by: Limitless Publishing


Blurb:
Lexie Wilder is caught in the clutches of the very man her mother tried to protect her from…

Separated from her mother and locked in a strange room, Lexie soon realizes the amount of control John Stodden has over all of them. She finally understands why her mother went to such lengths to shield her from the truth—a truth that has put everyone she cares about in danger.

But now she is faced with the daunting possibility that there might be something much stronger tying her to the heartless crime lord…like the very blood running through her veins.

Lines are about to be crossed as promises that cannot be kept are made…

Losing Lexie is not an option for Jackson Finley. He will risk anything in order to save her and take down the infamous crime boss who has remained untouched—until now. Willing to lay down his badge, and to break the laws he has sworn to uphold, Jackson will not stop until she is safe.

But when he accepts the help of Lexie’s late boyfriend’s brother, Evan, things start spiraling out of control and he’s forced to act fast if he wants to keep Evan from being swallowed by the darkness.

With a new evil lurking in the shadows, no one is safe...

Lexie’s best friend is missing, and now everyone realizes that the dangers run much deeper than what her mother had depicted in her diary. Will Lexie be able to save the people she loves, and will she be able to put her trust in the hands of a man who has claimed more of her heart than she ever thought possible?

SOUTHWEST STUFFED PEPPERS

So every once in awhile I try to go away from my "comfort" level and try something I have absolutely never had before. Well, generally when I do I either am the most excited person or scared of what I have made. Normally I am excited but a few times I have failed.

This was a meal that my daughter helped cooked which was good as she was definitely the one I was worried about eating the meal. In my opinion tonight's meal was a masterpiece and I think my son agrees with me! Mik was on the fence but she did eat it all so I consider that a success!

I thought it was so good, easy and really tasty. I have some of the meat mixture left over and I will definitely be eating it as leftovers!

So I did add corn into mine and I skipped the green chilies. I can't wait to have this some time again or try a different version of it!

You can find the recipe here: http://tidymom.net/2016/southwest-stuffed-peppers/

Blurb
Billionaire Caleb Blackstone lives in the glamorous world of wealth and success, with every material luxury. But the moment he sees Brooke Casterley, none of that matters. Caleb is filled with a raw, undeniable need that he can’t ignore…for a girl who is so completely different from everything and everyone he’s ever known.

Only Brooke isn’t looking for love. She knows all too well just how much damage the wrong guy can do. Still, what sane, broke British girl can resist the charms of an incredibly sexy, chivalrous billionaire? What starts as flirtation quickly turns into all-consuming passion. Nothing could have prepared her for the searing heat of Caleb’s touch—or just how much she craves him.

Their whirlwind romance is the stuff of high-society fantasy—but for every moment of pleasure, there is a cost. Past mistakes and tragedy shadow them both…and falling for him might be the kind of trouble she can’t afford.

Excerpt
I would give this thing two drinks max before I was outie.
Nodding and saying the right things, I shook hands with the colleagues who’d known my father and accepted condolences from others. I made a mental note of the people who’d made the effort to mention his name to me, and I would write them down with the event and date as soon as I got home.
I’d worked my way through the room, as I had been taught by my dad—by the best to ever work a roomful of potential deals—when I decided I’d accomplished what I’d set out to do tonight. It was time for me to go. After setting my glass down on an empty table, I started for the door . . . until I saw her.
Just like that. She appeared in my line of sight and I couldn’t take my eyes off her.
The beautiful girl from this morning at the Starbucks on Hereford Street.
I knew it was her because how could anyone forget those sexy boots? Her blonde hair wasn’t down like it had been this morning, though. She’d pulled it back into a sleek ponytail . . . but she was serving at this event? I’d seen her go into that design studio next to Starbucks. She probably had two jobs. Industrious . . . beautiful . . . sexy.
I quickly returned for my half-empty glass and snatched it up from the table. I suddenly felt like an appetizer or two.
She saw me approaching and moved closer with her tray. “What are these called?” I asked without sparing her tray a second glance. Bad move on my part, but I was too busy taking in her golden eyes and hair, and everything else I could now see up close. Perfect skin, dark lashes that framed spectacular eyes, and a scar along the hairline of the right side of her face. Something had hurt her at some point in the past, and I found it utterly insane that I was disturbed by it.
She rolled her pink lips together as if she was trying to suppress laughter. “Well, they’ve told me it’s something called a . . . meatball. Very unusual gourmet creation. You should try one. They’re said to be quite delicious.”
That voice of hers was . . . fucking beautiful.
“Okay.” I picked up a meatball and popped it in my mouth. Didn’t taste a thing. I could have been chewing slaughterhouse by-products and I wouldn’t have known. My brain had shut off everything except her beautiful voice.
“You are either messing with me or that blow to your head must have been devastating. I would wager you’ve had a meatball before.”
“I am.”
She lost her smile. “You are messing with me?”
“No, I am devastating—I mean devastated—by the blow to my head.” What in the mother fuck was I even saying to this girl? I sounded like Rain Man minus the IQ. I needed to stop talking.
“I’m sorry to hear that. It looks painful.”
“It doesn’t hurt me now.” I think I smiled and shook my head but couldn’t be sure. Just call me the village idiot because I knew I was acting like one. I did love the sound of her voice, though.
“Another rare and precious meatball?” She offered her tray and studied me this time. She had to be disgusted by my appearance and turned off by my behavior, but she didn’t show it if she was.
“Yes, please.” I took another meatball but I didn’t eat it. “You are British.”
“You are American,” she said with a fast wink, before turning away to serve other guests.
I watched her walk away from me and felt the pounding of my heart vibrating throughout my entire body.
Something had just happened to me.
I wasn’t completely sure what exactly, but I was crystal clear on the reason.
Her.

Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches

I am still on the re-boot unfortunately. I made this meal knowing that I wouldn't be able to enjoy it in sandwich form as I can't have any "grey" plates but OMG - I will definitely be needing to have it again!

Instead of buying rib-eye steaks the butcher recommended that I use "hot pot beef" from the freezer section that is already cut up and much cheaper. It cost me about $15 for the container of beef where as it would have cost me $50 for the steaks.

The meal was so easy to prepare with the meat already being cut up and it was easy to cook as well. The recipe was super simple and the meal was absolutely delicious!

Both of the kids finished their sandwiches and my son ate his in record time! So I ate some of the meat mixture along side my salad and it was so good! I think I ended up having enough for the leftovers three times!

What a super easy meal and extremely delicious!
