Baked Brie with bacon and sundried tomatoes

1. Place cheese on baking sheet or oven-safe pan lined with aluminum foil. Set aside.
2. In another pan, cook bacon until it becomes crispy. Remove bacon from the pan and pat with paper towel. Sieve bacon fat from the pan and set 1 tablespoon aside.
3. In the same pan, warm reserved bacon fat (for a healthier option, use 1 tablespoon of sundried tomato oil instead of bacon fat). Add bacon and remove from heat.
4. Add dried cranberries, arugula, pine nuts, and sundried tomatoes. Mix well.
5. Spread mixture over cheese and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
6. Garnish with basil and serve with bread or crackers.

Tip:

This warm mix of crispy bacon, dried cranberries, arugula, pine nuts, sundried tomatoes, and basil is also perfect in a salad.
