to pan fry: large skillet lightly greased..
to oven cook.. preheat oven to 400°F
on a large work surface.. covered in parchment paper.. lay 3 slices bacon side by side so they are just touching each other.
take one slice of bacon and weave it through the other 3 slices up down up.
take another slice and weave it so its touching but not overlapping last weave and this time its down up down.
take another slice and repeat what u did in step 4.
trim off some excess bacon ( save for later use!)
to oven cook: place parchment with weave in a cookie sheet and bake about 35-40 minutes or until nice and crispy! flipping halfway through. I do not like this method as the edges tend to burn before the middle is done.
to pan cook.. gently flip the weave into a hot skillet( u may have to fix or adjust bacon weave) and fry until the first side is crispy. using a large spatula gently and carefully flip it over to crisp up 2nd side. total about 10 minutes per side. depending on how high of heat. I use medium high.
when done.. transfer bacon to a paper towel to drain. while bacon is still hot fold it in half resting it on something to keep the mouth of the taco open so u can fill it later. I used an oval 1/3c. measuring cup. u can use a handle of a large spoon or whatever.
repeat with rest of bacon. you will end up with 2 bacon taco shells!
fry up bacon u trimmed off the excess and set aside on a paper towel to drain.
if using green pepper, onion etc. using same pan u fried bacon in drain out bacon grease and reserve for later. sautee veggies in bacon grease until tender and set aside.
next.. chop or shredd your ham.
in a bowl wisk together milk, eggs, ham, pepper and any veggies u sssauted and leftover bacon trimmings u cooked up earlier.
heat same skillet u did veggies in.. add a tbl. of bacon grease and pour egg mix in. keep stirring and cook until scrambled eggs form and eggs are cooked through.
grab ur bacon taco and fill it with eggs and sprinkle with desired amount of cheese.
serve and enjoy!
