Grilled Strawberry Peach & Bacon Sandwiches
July 20, 2012
Are you tired of peach recipes yet? I told you I had a ton of peaches to get through, and I just can't seem to get the motivation to make jam.
Mainly because I don't have any canning jars. So that means a trip to the store.
That would mean I have to actually get myself "fixed", chase my child through the house while clutching a pair of almost-too-small spiderman underwear, yelling, "Yes, you have to wear underpants!" Then body slam him to the ground, while I wrestle a shirt over his head.
What? Your kid dresses himself?
Awesome.
Mine looks like he's about to run away and join the circus whenever he does it himself. Of course, some days the process of getting him dressed makes me feel like I'VE joined the circus.
So you see why I haven't made jam yet? I decided to go with a grilled sandwich instead. These sandwiches are so easy and sooo tasty. Nice toasty bread, slathered with cream cheese and strawberry preserves, topped with fresh sliced peaches and crispy bacon.
Mmmm. Definitely a nice change from the usual.

3. Top with sliced peaches, cooked bacon, and other side of bread.

Love your blog. Just stumbled upon it a few days ago. My boys are maniacs so I can relate to the wrangling. Why is everything such a battle? Sigh. These sandwiches look fabulous!! I love love love bacon and would have never thought to try it in this combination. Thank you!
Thanks Jessica! So glad you stopped by and thanks so much for the comment. :) Yes, boys are maniacs. I think it's in their DNA. Sigh. :)
These pictures are gorgeous! I am so down with the fruit and bacon combo, but it's going to take some convincing to get the hubs to let any kind of healthy thing touch his bacon. I'll just have to be sneaky with this one!
This is such a great idea for a sandwich! Definitely need to give this a try!
What a great idea for a summer sandwhich!
The salty bacon with the sweet juicy fruit on toasty bread sounds absolutely fabulous! I've never tried a sandwich like this and it looks delicious! Have a great weekend!
Peach and bacon sounds good :) I think peaches tasted great with any kind of meat :)
Oooh, love the idea of combining fruit with bacon!
Wow! This looks amazing!
