{Crock Pot} Bacon Jam

Bacon is in the top five favorite foods in my house and we love eating it alone and in yummy recipes. {Crock Pot} Bacon Jam is sweet, savory, and distinctive. I have had it bookmarked on my computer for a long time, and I wish I would have made it sooner.  I was missing out on something really delicious and will be making it many more times! The combination of ingredients is interesting, yet a perfect blend of flavors! It is so easy to make and your house smells AMAZING! My kids came home from school and couldn’t wait to eat what smelled so “awesome”!!! We were going to hang out with a big group of friends last Friday night and they pretty much always expect me to bring something with bacon. {Crock Pot} Bacon Jam was quite popular and we ate it on baguette slices! The kids loved it too! I saved a little container of it at home because I wanted to try it on scrambled eggs the next morning.  That was a great idea!!! I can think of many tasty options to eat with this and I can’t wait to make more {Crock Pot} Bacon Jam!
