Paleo Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies An original recipe from The Tasty Page When it comes to choosing between sweet and savory I always choose savory.

Cinnamon Pecan Brittle Adapted from Elana’s Pantry http://elanaspantry.com/cinnamon-pecan-brittle/ For the longest time I hated brittle. Specifically, peanut brittle.
