  DONT WASTE YOUR TIME

  Rated: 1 stars out of 5

  THESE WERE DISGUSTING. THE CRACKERS WERE DRENCHED IN GREASE. I REALIZE MOST OF PAULAS RECIPES ARE RICH, BUT THIS ONE WAS... AWFUL. I NORMALLY ADORE PAULAS RECIPES BUT THIS ONE WAS SO GREASY, WE ALL FELT SICK TO OUR STOMACHS. TRY HER BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN BITES INSTEAD, THEY'RE OUT OF THIS WORLD.Read more

  Good Appetizer!!

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  We found these to be really good! But we cut bacon strips in half to reduce grease and opted to coat the bacon strips with... parmesan vs the teaspoon on the cracker. With the teaspoon we thought the cheese was a bit overpowering. Don't use thick cut bacon!! Read more

  Easy Hints and Tips . . .

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I've made these a TON of times and always to rave reviews. Here are a few helpful hints and tips: Use a sleeve of Keebler... Club House Crackers. Put the crackers on a "stone" baking sheet - it helps absorb some of the grease as these bake, plus it helps to season your stone. (I use Pampered Chef's 10x15 1/2" Stoneware Baking Pan. Use a Parmesan cheese with a HIGH moisture content (more white in color), rather than a dry (brownish colored) variety (and dear lord, please don't use that jarred up sprinkle kind . . . blah!). The baking process naturally robs the cheese of moisture, so starting out with an already dry cheese doesn't help. I also "quarter" each piece of bacon before wrapping each cracker. (Cut each piece in half, cross-wise, then cut each strip length-wise, too.) This keeps the crackers from getting too greasy . . . however; let's face it - you are using BACON. If you are looking for a relatively healthy recipe MOVE ON - this one ain't for you! Also, keep in mind, these are like little appetizers, you should figure about two per person (though, no body I know can really stop at two!). . . If you don't make a meal out of them, you'll be eating less bacon than you would with a normal breakfast. Finally, if you are making these ahead of time or taking them to a function, you should "re-heat" them slightly before serving. I recommend popping them in a 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes, just before serving . . . ENJOY!Read more

  Easiest Appetizer Ever

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  These are the best things ever! I, too, used the new large multigrain Sociable crackers. I then topped with a jalapeno slice... I also used a shredded mixed Italian cheese blend, wrapped with bacon and cannot make enough of them. I used the quick cook method and you can't beat these. Not greasy at all. I like that you can make them up ahead of time too!Read more

  My family loves these! We make them every Christmas Eve and when they are gone, wish we had more. I can't believe some of... the reviewers had trouble. I follow this recipe to the "T" and it comes out perfect every time! Thanks Paula!Read more

  Crowd Pleaser

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  These were very simple to make, but they are not inexpensive if you by a wedge of fresh parmesan and grate it yourself plus... the bacon. I divided the bacon into thirds so got more pieces and there was more than enough bacon to wrap the cracker. Also used low fat Ritz but I also like low fat Waverly's, so I think either would be fine. I cooked these for exactly 2 hours; however, a little less time in the oven might have made them less hard. They were very very crisp, but the flavor was good so people didn't mind how crisp they were. Feedback was all positive.Read more
