Pretty tempting, right? I gotta ‘fess up right here, it’s not my recipe. It’s Kevin’s. He loves to cook and he’s oh so good at it! So on the days I work, he has dinner on the table for us when I get home. Yay!
Recently we’ve made some changes in our eating habits: Less carbs, a little more meat and a lot more vegetables.
Kevin (a total fan of all things potato) has stepped up to the plate beautifully. He’s eliminated the potatoes and is sometimes serving 2 different veggies for dinner along with our meat entree.
This is his most recent creation, served alongside meatballs. I don’t know if this is exactly the way some might envision eating more vegetables, but it works for both of us. It was fabulous and we were still eating asparagus!
Pretty simple recipe:
Preheat oven to 400.
Line baking sheet with foil.
Wrap bacon around asparagus and place on baking sheet. Give it a little dusting of that cinnamon and sugar.
Bake 15 minutes. You’re going to have to just keep an eye on it from there, checking if the asparagus is done and how you like your bacon. Kevin said once the asparagus is done, he turns up the oven to 425 degrees to crisp up the bacon a little. (That’s for my benefit.😊)
Serve right out of the oven.
We’ve since made this again, this time with a dusting of brown sugar and chili powder. Yummers!
Enjoy!
Thanks for stopping!
