Peppered Turkey Bacon-Oven Made

mydesigirl's Note:

I'm a pepper freak! I like to make this and put the leftovers in the fridge to have to put on sandwiches or wraps for lunch. Very easy

• Total Time: 17 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 12 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 8

• 1 lb turkey bacon
• 1/2-1 tablespoon black pepper (I go a bit heavy on this)
• parchment paper
• cooking spray

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400.
2. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and give it a spray of cooking spray(PAM).
3. Lay the bacon out on the sheet making sure not to overlap. (you may need to make 2 batches).
4. Sprinkle with black pepper.
5. Put into oven for 12 minutes and then start watching until it gets as crisp as you like.
6. I leave it in for around 15 minutes.
7. Take out of the oven and put the bacon on a plate covered with paper towels to drain.
8. Enjoy!

I love bacon, but I don't think I'd ever cooked turkey bacon before. It's certainly not as good as the real thing. Still, adding pepper to it and cooking it this way (only the second time I'd ever used parchment paper, I think) makes it better, and a lot less messy. I had this for three consecutive breakfasts. One minor complaint is that the pepper doesn't stick too well to the bacon. I wonder if slightly rubbing it into the bacon before cooking would help any.

This is the only way I'll make turkey bacon. In the oven -- alot less mess. The pepper definitely adds some bite to the bacon. I cooked the whole package and froze most of it for future use. Thanks for a great recipe.
