The perfect blend of savory and sweet in one dish, this dinner has something for everyone to love. The Kielbasa and Bacon for the meat-lovers, and the lightly sweet apples and sweet potatoes for the sweet lovers. The light bbq-apple butter glaze over the dish just adds to the smoky, tangy, dish and kisses it with a depth of flavor for just the perfect combination.
Sponsor Shout Out: NordicWare provided me with this baking pan for Apple Week this week. I used the pan on this recipe to cook the bacon and kielbasa. I love that it drains away the grease and crisps the bacon to perfection, but also is versatile for other foods also!
Such a versatile pan like so many of the other NordicWare products!
I have used this meal for a family breakfast as well as a dinner, and you can't go wrong either way!
For breakfast I serve this with a big plate of scrambled eggs, and warm biscuits, and I promise you all the platters are empty, and all the bellies are full!
