- In a medium skillet cook bacon over medium heat for about 4 minutes or until cooked, but not crisp-turning once. (It will continue to cook in the oven).
- Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Place one biscuit in each muffin cup, pressing dough 3/4 of the way up sides of cups. Place 2 bacon slices in each biscuit cup, and crack an egg over each cup. Season each egg, with salt and pepper and hot sauce, if desired.

Tips to Stretch Your Dollar
Got any bacon left over? Don’t throw it away! Cooked bacon lasts an extra four to five days in the fridge when placed into a storage container with a paper towel. This prevents the bacon from becoming soggy. As for biscuits that went untouched: Place them into a container with a paper towel to soak up excess moisture and keep your biscuits tasting fresh. They’re great for reheating in the oven at 350°F for eight minutes.
