Review: Thomas' Bacon Buttermilk Pancake English Muffins

I'm not going to lie, the second I saw these my first thought was, "Oh my gosh, that's going to be awful."

Then I smelled them. Mmm! Maple syrup!

"Let's try them for lunch with some meat," said the boyfriend.

Alright then. We picked up some ham and made our way home. I toasted them up, filling the house with so much yummy deliciousness maple smell. Then we put on the ham, I used mayo on mine and he used mustard.

It was much, much better than I expected. You can actually taste the pancake and the maple syrup wasn't overpoweringly sweet. I didn't really taste bacon but I know it was there, I could see it. Two thumbs up from both of us. And, it doesn't leave a gross aftertaste like some products like this.

Today I had it toasted with ham, scrambled egg and mayo. Delicious! The great thing is that it left me feeling full, which doesn't always happen with breakfast.

Next on the list to try it with is going to be my bacon-cheese-scallion scrambled egg with a sausage patty. I can't wait!

Though I'm sad it is going to be limited edition. I like knowing I can have different flavors now and again. I am going to experiment with it until I can't buy it anymore.

Stuffed Burgers

The menu last night was hamburger, mashed potatoes and corn. Not very exciting, I know, but it is one of my regular meals as it is reasonably cheap and not awful on the carbs, especially if I have broccoli instead. And, no judging me on the potatoes mixed with corn. I've been doing that since I was a little kid and love it this way.

I had a hamburger a few nights ago with shredded Mexican cheese (four kinds of cheese) and Bacos. I mixed it in with the meat and cooked it up, much like the burgers I would buy from a local grocery store. It was good but I wanted to try something different. I decided to make stuffed burgers.

Ingredients:
1/4 lb. hamburger
1/4 cup shredded cheese
1/4 cup Bacos

Directions:
1. Divide the hamburger into 2/3 for the "bowl" and 1/3 for the top.
2. With the larger amount of hamburger make a "bowl" then fill with the shredded cheese and Bacos. I layered them so that there would be cheese above and below the Bacos.
3. Flatten out the smaller amount of hamburger then lay on top of the "bowl" and pinch the sides together to create a full hamburger.
4. Cook until it is a done as much as you like.

Update:
I'm still working on my timing so mine was a bit more pink than I like but it was definitely edible. I would also encourage you to use thicker shredded cheese so it takes longer to melt and will be gooier when you cut it open.

If you try the recipe, let me know what you think of it in the comments!
