BLT Pasta Salad and Basic Fried Rice

So it's been another lazy Saturday. Didn't accomplish much today as hubby is still on nights so we don't get up really all that early. However, we did make a couple yummy recipes from left overs we had in the fridge. :)

I figured to save my sanity I would include both of these recipes in this one post since they were lunch and dinner in the same day.

As you can probably see, the common element in both of these is Bacon. We don't usually buy bacon except if it's on sale but the baby was asking for it and I really really don't want to waste it when we do buy it so we went on a bacon blitz for the last 2 days! Can't say I've really complained. It's been sooo good! So I'm not going to promise super nutritious recipes this time lol but you only live once and I really don't think that bacon is that bad for you on occasion! The top picture is of our dinner a really yummy creation entitled BLT Pasta Salad and for lunch (bottom picture) is some basic fried rice. Here are your recipes! Enjoy!

BLT Pasta Salad

2 Cups Cooked Pasta (I used GF Rizopia noodles)

1 Tbsp Mayonnaise (I used Miracle Whip)

4 Slices of Bacon

1/2 of a Tomato, Chopped

1/8 Cup Onion, Diced

Iceberg Lettuce to taste (2 to 4 leaves), Chopped

1) Cook Bacon. When bacon is cooked slice it into small pieces.

2) Chop onion.

3) Place cooked pasta into a mixing bowl.

4) Add lettuce, tomato, bacon, mayo, and onion to pasta and stir together.

5) Enjoy! (Serves 2 but you may want to add a side or make more. Very good, highly addictive)
