Chuckas

In honor of an old family friend, Charlie Campbell, R.I.P. We created this when I was a child in Louisville, KY. I distinctly remember it being a Sunday morning when--serendipity!-- this odd combo of ingredients came together.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 4  English muffins, toasted
• 2 -3  bananas, halved, then sliced length-wise
• 10 -12  strawberries, cleaned, thinly sliced
• 16  ounces  softened cream cheese
• 4 -6  slices bacon, fried

Directions

1. You are preparing what is essentially an open-faced sandwich of sorts.
2. Spread the cream cheese on a muffin, and then stack with slices of banana, strawberry, and bacon.
3. It can get messy, but the combination of flavors makes this one of the great surprises.
