Jeanne Shupe, recipe of the month, was the first guest of the day. The recipe that Jeanne reviewed was submitted by Ruth Burns of Des Moines.

Bacon Wrapped Yummies

1/2 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese (plus a little extra for dusting on top)
1 sleeve of Town house crackers (or any buttery cracker, oval shapes are best)
1 lb sliced bacon, cut in half (so you have 1/2 length slices)
Penzeys Spices Northwoods Fire Seasoning (you'll be using just a pinch on each cracker, so amount is to taste)

Preheat oven with rack positioned in mid-oven to 350 degrees.

Place 1 teaspoon of Parmesan cheese on each cracker.
Put a scant pinch of the Northwoods Fire Seasoning on top of the cheese.
Wrap the crackers in one half slice a bacon, being sure to wrap securely, but not too tight (otherwise, you get a butterfly shaped appetizer which is perfectly fine, but not necessarily what you might want with a he-man bowl of chili!)
Place the crackers on a broiler pan, which has been place on top a slightly larger baking sheet (important when considering any possible bacon grease that may cook away to under the broiler pan)

Dust the tops of the appetizers with a smidgen of extra cheese.
Bake the appetizers for 40 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove from broiler/baking sheet rig and let cool on paper towels
Can be served hot or room temperature.
