Smoky, delicious bacon has long been a favorite food in the US, whether it's served with eggs for breakfast or use in a salad, side dish, or main dish. Here are some of my own favorite dishes with bacon, including bacon and egg casseroles, bacon-wrapped meat loaf and meats, and side dishes and salads with bacon.
