CONS

Bacon is high in fat and calories, so these kebabs should be enjoyed in moderation overall.

Also, be careful when grilling as the bacon fat may cause flare-ups.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

New potatoes are high in potassium, vitamin C, and fiber.
Bacon, although high in fat, is a good source of protein and contains important nutrients like niacin and vitamin B12.
However, moderation is key, as too much bacon can increase the risk of heart disease and other health conditions.
