Bacon Wrapped Asparagus
The perfect side dish for any occasion, fit within a ketogenic or low carb diet, and is a THM:S recipe.
Easter is right around the corner and one of my favorite things about knowing spring is coming, is knowing that asparagus season will be here soon!
Asparagus is wildly expensive here in the off season, but when it's in season I actually don't have to buy it because my friends and neighbors usually have it coming out of their ears!
Really though, asparagus is one of my favorite foods, and when combined with bacon it creates a side dish that is elegant enough for Easter dinner, yet easy enough for a weekday side to go along with dinner.
Here's what you'll need….
1 lb Asparagus spears (about 25 spears)
1.5 lbs Bacon, about 25 slices (I used ButcherBox Heritage Bred Pork Bacon)
Cracked Pepper, to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400.
Trim the woody ends off each asparagu spear, then wrap with one piece of bacon. Set on a large baking sheet.
Sprinkle the bacon wrapped asparagus with a bit of cracked pepper, then bake at 400 for 18-22 minutes, depending on how thick your bacon is and how crispy you enjoy it. Serve warm.
