Bacon or Sausage for a Crowd

Bacon or Sausage for a Crowd

Ingredients:
bacon, meatless

Directions:
Heat oven to 400 degrees (F).
Open bacon package and lay a single layer of bacon on a 12 x 18 x 1 baking sheet (cover it well with foil to save clean-up if desired).
Cook for 10-14 minutes depending on how crispy you like your bacon.
Repeat until all is cooked.
Cool and put into plastic storage bags in whole slices or crumbled.
Use immediately or use later for sandwiches, salads or additions to other recipes.
Cut sausage into patties (this is easier if it is lightly frozen).
Place in single layer on baking sheet then mash a slight dent in center of each with a spoon or your finger.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, depending on how well done you like your sausage.
Repeat until all sausage is cooked.
Use immediately or cool and place into plastic storage bags to heat up during the week for quick breakfast additions.
Save leftover bacon grease for use in making gravy, cooking beans or peas or to flavor other recipes.
