Honey, Bacon and Feta Crispy Cubes
I’m sorry but this dish is ✨ GLORIOUS ✨
Nothing hits better than a mix of sweet and salty. I love this dish so much as it’s super easy to make and I usually eat a full bowl as a snack or as my lunch. You can always add a side salad or a few greens if you wanna up your veggie count, but I won’t judge if you smash the full lot.
The combo of flavours and textures within this dish is what really makes it stand out. You’ve got the CROUNCHIEST spuds, crispiest bacon, sweetest honey and creamiest feta all going on in there and it’s giving holiday vibes. Whenever I make these delicious feta crispy cubes, I feel like I should be sat on a balcony in the sun, post-shower, washing these spuds down with a Fanta Limon and packet of bacon Ruffles or Lays. You know the feeling.
When making my honey, bacon and feta crispy cubes, I do like to throw in some chilli flakes or the odd fresh chilli to add a lil spice, but that’s completely optional. What’s also great about this recipe is that you don’t need specific measurements, simply measure with your heart and you can’t go wrong. So what ya waiting for? Make the spuds of the summer season ☀️

You absolutely owe it to yourself to find out why they went viral. For the ultimate crunch though, you definitely have to make a batch of gourmet crisps.
