Start with some slightly defrosted tater tots.Wrap an uncooked 1/2 slice of bacon around it and stick it with a toothpick. Deep fry for 4 minutes.
For an extra treat put one sliced pickled jalapeno pepper inside the bacon wrap too!
Make some nice ranch dip to dip in, or just use Heinz Ketchup.
Get out the buttons that say
"I <3 Tater Tots" 'cause everyone is going to want to wear one!

Southern Living Magazine's
Peanut Butter-Banana Icebox Pie
This chilled, creamy pies is the dessert equivalent of a swimming hole--so refreshing you can't help but dive in.
- Yield: Makes 8 servings
- Hands-on:30 Minutes
- Total:9 Hours, 10 Minutes
- 2 cups cinnamon graham cracker crumbs (about 15 sheets)(Bob uses regular graham cracker crumbs)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped honey-roasted peanuts
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 (4-oz.) semisweet chocolate baking bar, chopped
- 2 cups whipping cream, divided
- 1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large bananas, sliced
- Toppings: sweetened whipped cream, chocolate syrup, chopped honey-roasted peanuts
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Stir together first 3 ingredients;
firmly press on bottom, up sides, and onto lip of a lightly greased
9-inch pie plate. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove
from oven to a wire rack, and cool completely (about 30 minutes).
2. Microwave chocolate and 1/2 cup whipping cream in a small microwave-safe bowl at MEDIUM (50% power) 1 1/2 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring at 30-second intervals. Whisk until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. (Do not overheat.) Spoon chocolate mixture into prepared crust.
3. Beat cream cheese, next 2 ingredients, and 1/4 cup whipping cream at medium speed with an electric mixer until mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Beat vanilla and remaining 1 1/4 cups whipping cream at high speed until stiff peaks form. Fold one-third whipped cream mixture into peanut butter mixture to loosen; fold in remaining whipped cream mixture.
5. Arrange banana slices over chocolate mixture in crust. Spread peanut butter mixture over bananas. Cover and chill 8 hours. Serve pie with desired toppings.
