Ingredients

6-8 slices bacon about 4-6 oz
1 cup shredded cheese mix of cheddar, parmesan, and mozzarella

OPTIONAL

1-2 TBSP sour cream
2 TBSP fermented cabbage
2 eggs scrambled and cooked

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Arrange the bacon slices in a single layer, ensuring even spacing for uniform cooking. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side until crispy and golden. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, evenly sprinkle the shredded cheese into a thin, circular layer, approximately 6-7 inches in diameter. Bake for 3-5 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt fully and crisp at the edges until it turns golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 1-2 minutes, giving it time to firm up slightly while remaining flexible for wrapping.
Place the cooled cheese round flat on a clean surface. Arrange 3-4 bacon strips lengthwise down the center of the cheese. For an extra burst of flavor, optionally add a small dollop of sour cream, a spoonful of fermented cabbage, or a layer of scrambled eggs, spreading it lightly over the bacon to ensure the wrap isn’t overwhelmed.
Fold one side of the cheese over the filling, then roll it into a tight wrap, tucking in the ends. Serve immediately while warm, enjoying the melty cheese and crispy bacon.

Notes

Cheese Choice: Opt for a good melting cheese like cheddar, parmesan, or mozzarella to ensure a sturdy wrap.
Carnivore Focus: Skip sour cream or fermented cabbage for a strict carnivore version—just bacon, eggs, and cheese!
Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but you can wrap leftovers in parchment and refrigerate for up to 1 day; reheat gently to avoid sogginess.
