Southwest Bacon Salad (a.k.a. “Where Did Her Dinner Go?”)

Recipe link

We skipped the chicken (because chicken is a no in our house), and went all in on the bacon version. No chipotle sauce. No lettuce. Yes to a bonus egg, because if there’s one thing our daughter loves more than bacon, it’s eggs.

Her baby plate got:
🥓 Chopped bacon
🌽 Corn
🧀 Feta
🥚 Extra egg (Dad hack: always make a second egg)
🍅 Tomato and pepper bits, all chopped up for tiny fingers

She devoured it. I was halfway through my own plate when I looked over and hers was empty. No negotiations. No trades. Just pure joy and an eggy, feta-smudged face.

Honestly? Shocked. 10/10 would make again—maybe with a third egg next time.
