How to Make Bacon Wrapped Asparagus

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Snap off the tough bottom ends of the asparagus spears by bending them until they naturally break. Discard the bottom portions.
  3. Gather 3 asparagus spears together.
  4. Wrap approximately 1/2 slice of bacon around the asparagus bundle.
  5. Secure with a toothpick.
  6. Place the bacon-wrapped asparagus bundles in a single layer in a non-stick baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
