Hey gang! How was your weekend? Was it filled with the sweet smell of freedom, or tears because now you have to figure out a way to entertain your kids for two and a half months? HA. Or maybe your kids are still in school?

Our final day was last Thursday. And I rejoiced. Fifth and third grade were no picnic, so we are going to relish this break; swim, travel, relax, and hang out with friends whom we never get to see! And yes, I�ve got camps lined up�because I�m not crazy. Lol.

Ingredients

• 1 pound dried mini pasta shells
• 1 pound Signature Farms� Hickory Smoked Bacon , diced
• 3/4 pound lean ground beef
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• pinch red pepper flakes
• salt and pepper
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup Signature Kitchens� Original Barbecue Sauce
• 2 tablespoons Signature Kitchens Spicy Brown Mustard
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 1/2 teaspoons hot chili sauce
• 1 can (15 ounce) Signature Kitchens Whole Kernel Golden Sweet Corn, drained
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 5 scallions, diced

Directions

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; cook pasta until al dente according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
• In the meantime, saute bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain off grease. Wipe out skillet, leaving a little of the bacon grease. Add the ground beef; cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Season with the cumin, red pepper flakes, and with a pinch of salt and pepper. Drain off fat. Set aside to cool completely.
