Sprinkle pimento pieces around for the garland. Easy and cheap to make and you will surely run out of these guys quickly at your party. It would also be a quick snack to have for the family when they sit down and watch your favorite Christmas movie.

They came out so good – we sprinkled them with cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream and added chives and bacon bits. The toppings made their way inbetween the slices and it was really good and so simple. If watching caloried use low fat/fat free sour cream and cheese and skip the bacon bits.

bacon egg breakfastThese are very good and are actually very easy to make, and you can make several at a time. Use thick cut ham luncheon meat and place in non-stick sprayed cupcake pan.  Push the ham down into the cupcake well. Add scrambled egg and chives and cheese to taste (you can also add onion, bell pepper, peppers such as jalapeno). Bake at 350 for 5-7 minutes  or until you can push a fork into the egg and have it come out with no wetness. Serve immediately.

Boulder+Locavore+frito+pie+527This is such an awesome way to serve many people – and many think it is just a fairground food. Think of it as a quick serve to a large group of people with little clean up.

1: Slit bag along the side to completely open it.

2: Pour a ladle of your favorite chilli over top

3: Put chopped up onion (raw or fried) and you can also use chopped green onions (raw or fried)

4: Put cheddar (or mozzarella) on top

5: Have the recipient pinch the top of the bag to seal in the heat and melt the cheese

6:  Dig in – its really good

Change ups: This is the basic ingredients you can add but think about offering a variety of things: cut up cooked hot dogs, tomatoes diced. Also think about making this a different way (the Italian way): add a meatball and mozzarella to Ruffles along with tomatoes, tomato sauce. Think more Mexican: top Frito’s (or Doritos) with taco seasoned meat and trim it out the same way you make tacos
