The Baconer
By far, our favorite item this year comes from The Baconer.
I chose the uncured and Sugar-Free Bacon Box.
They did send me this box for free.
So far we have tried the XXL Bacon Steaks and the Small Batch Bacon.
Both were delicious!
We still have the Smoked Lardons and Ground Bacon to try.
I am searching for the perfect way to use these!
If you love bacon, you don’t want to miss out on trying it from The Baconer!
It makes a great gift too!
Green Earth Pan By Ozeri
This is second Green Earth Pan from Ozeri that I own and I love them both!
There is no comparison when it comes to non-stick pans – these are the best!
They are truly non-stick – as long as you season them before you use them the first time and follow the simple care instructions sent with them.
My first Green Earth Pan is over 2 years old and looks brand new.
This one though is the king of the two because it is a huge 12″ pan that I can cook plenty of food in for a crowd.
Clean-up is super easy too!
All I have to do is take my pan to the sink, wash it in some warm, soapy water and dry it.
I keep my pans hanging on a wall so they do not get scratched up but this pan came with a pan protector so those of you that stack your pans in your cabinets can keep them safe.
I use only plastic or silicone utensils in my pans – no metal.
I love that this pan is free of PTFE, PFOA and other harmful chemicals and that the ceramic surface is safe to cook on.
One more thing I love is I can cook on a lower heat and have my food done in less time than using a regular skillet.
Be aware the ceramic surface does hold heat so if you are cooking remove the food item from the pan once the food is the correct temperature to prevent possible overcooking.
I have not had an issue but I like my meat well done.
I really could go on all day about how wonderful this pan is, but watch the attached video and see for yourself!
This would make a great gift item too!

Product Review: Vita Nut Milk Bag
The Vita Nut Milk Bag did everything I needed it to do and is the perfect addition to your homestead kitchen. It strains more than nut milk.
