  • 1/8 teaspoon oregano
  • chopped pecans or walnuts, optional

Preparation

Step 1

2. If using pecans, walnuts, or cranberries, fold them into leftover stuffing until totally incorporated.
3. Take 1 spoonful of stuffing and roll it into a ball or log.
4. Lay bacon out on a clean surface and place stuffing log on one end. Carefully roll stuffing up in bacon and use a toothpick to secure.
5. Repeat with remaining stuffing bites, then transfer them to a baking sheet (with rack) and set on top of a lined baking tray.
6. In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, paprika and oregano until combined.
7. Gently press sugar mixture onto the bacon bites, then place baking sheet in oven.
8. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until bacon is crispy. (Depending on thickness of bacon, this time may be reduced considerably)
9. Remove from oven and serve hot.
