Guys, I’ve gone a whole 3 months without putting bourbon in something, and I don’t like it one bit. I should be ashamed of myself!
I mean, this cake was just BEGGING for it. Is there a better combination than peaches and bourbon in the summertime? It’s pure Southern goodness, ya’ll.
(I’m sorry I said ya’ll.)
I present to you Sweet Potato Bacon Breakfast Tacos, a.k.a. the time I took a healthy vegetable and fried it in a full inch of bacon fat and called it breakfast.
For the record, I regret nothing.
See, we’re really into breakfast food ‘round the clock around here. We eat black bean breakfast burritos (my super-simple weeknight dinner specialty, if I do say so myself) or veggie-loaded egg scrambles for dinner at least once a week. Literally the only thing that Brad knows how to make is an buttery egg-and-cheese breakfast sandwich. It’s safe to say we are egg-and-cheese devotees, so when I realized the other day that I’d never tried my hand at an epic breakfast taco, my food-blogger mind started churning on overdrive.
Are you ready for some corn porn?
Hey, it’s my blog. I can say “corn porn” if I want to. I mean, just look at those bodacious, bright, insanely summer-y kernels, yo. I speak the truth.
Before you say anything – I know. I know “oat bran muffins” is pretty much the least sexy food-name of all time. But hear me out!!
These blueberry oat bran muffins are kinda sorta like the nerdy girl in the 90’s rom-com who turns into a total babe and wins the heart of the most popular guy in school as soon as she gets some contacts and a blowout. Ya dig?
It’s like, oat bran, BO-RING. Bran muffins, MEH. But then! We add big juicy bursts of fresh blueberry deliciousness and….DAYUMMMM. Sexy. Right?
