Beautiful Potato Bacon Roses (Whole30)

As an adult, I don't often get that child-like sense of accomplishment very often.  There were so many more feats to conquer as a kid, that the feeling of pride happened nearly every day.  This recipe is one that I can honestly say gives me great pride even though it is by far one of the simplest recipes I have ever posted!

When I first sent the picture of these beautiful bacon potato roses to my mum, she couldn't believe how well they turned out.  Her next comment was "I probably wouldn't make these just for your dad since they would take too much time."

This is when I got super excited and proclaimed, "they only take 10 minutes to prepare!".

Silence on the other line told me that she thought that maybe I was slightly exaggerating but I swear to you, I am not!

The Execution

Slice your potatoes into even discs and place in a bowl.  Add the olive oil and seasonings and toss to coat all sides of the potato slices.

Next, take one strip of bacon and lay it flat on a cutting board.

Add overlapping slices of potato along the length of the bacon.

Roll the bacon up and place in Reusable Silicone Baking Cups or directly in a muffin pan.

Finally, place the bacon potato roses in the oven and let them bake for about 50 minutes or until cooked.

Gorgeous, elegant and super easy, these Whole30 approved bacon potato rolls will be sure to impress all your guests!
