    ok, YES! Happy Cinco de Mayo!! but we blasted you with all our current Cinco recipes last week, that today, instead of more mexican inspired dishes, we give you TOTAL American. Hows that, eh? eh? REALLY what happened is that our post with a fellow blogger fell through- stinking technology. But, sometime soon you'll see it.

    ok, go ahead and take a break from your diet and sit down and eat a little bacon and potato... actually... Lets show a little respect to potatoes. Did you know potatoes are pretty much fat free? A medium potato only has about 110 calories, is high in vitamin C and packs more potassium than a banana. They are suuuuper filling...its just what you choose to put on your potato (or , ahem, wrap around them.) that makes them fattening.Plus, they are also gluten free, so for any of your friends who do not eat gluten this makes a great appetizer. or side. or snack. They are so easy to make.

    Soften your potatoes by boiling them for 3-5 minutes. Wrap with a bit of bacon and toothpick. Dip in brown sugar and bake until nice and crispy.
