How to Make Bacon Cheese Snacks

  1. Preheat your oven's broiler.
  2. Cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy. Remove from pan and crumble finely.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled bacon, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and a pinch of black pepper.
  4. Mix well until everything is evenly distributed.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly onto 8 slices of party rye bread.
  6. Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
