BACON-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS SPEARS WITH TOMATOES AND TALEGGIO CHEESE
Mike came up with this recipe during the first dinner we cooked together in our brand-new apartment! We were inspired by a similar dish we've had at an Italian restaurant, but used it as a side dish instead of an antipasti plate, and substituted the prosciutto with bacon. The cheese, a relatively mild cow's milk cheese, should be relatively easy to find because of its increasing popularity. Super easy to make, and super tasty!

BACON-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS
While asparagus season is here, keep this recipe near. It's a pretty and impressive side perfect for brunch or dinner-maybe alongside a steak! And it's a godsend when entertaining, since it's made with only five ingredients, a single pan and the simplest of techniques. The trick is wrapping bundles of asparagus, instead of individual stalks. As the bundles bake, the bacon drippings infuse the stalks with smoky flavor and transform this sometimes-woody vegetable into a silky smooth and meltingly tender masterpiece which, in our experience, no one can resist!

BACON WRAPPED ASPARAGUS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Divide the asparagus spears into 8 bundles. Wrap each bundle in the middle of the spears with one piece of bacon. Place the bundles seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bake until the bacon is fully cooked, about 25 minutes.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the flour over the butter and stir. Cook until the mixture is golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 1 minute. Stir in the mustard powder, onion powder, nutmeg and remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the milk a little at a time and continue cooking and whisking until the mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted, then take off the heat.
- Carefully transfer the bacon bundles to a serving platter. Pour the cheese sauce over the asparagus and sprinkle with the fried onions. Serve warm.

Steps:
- PREP.
- Wash then cut the asparagus stalks down a bit (usually 1-2 inches) to remove the tougher parts.
- Put the asparagus into a large ziploc bag and pour the Zesty Italian Dressing over the asparagus. Make sure all of the spears are going the same way. This will make it easier to mix around in the sauce.
- After mincing the garlic (bottled minced garlic works too), put it all onto the asparagus in the bag.
- Roll the dressing and garlic around in the bag and leave in the fridge for at least two hours to 4 hours, longer will let the flavor really get into the asparagus.
- After marinating is done, pull the asparagus out and wrap, the long way, with a bacon strip. Use a toothpick on the top and bottom of the asparagus to keep it on during cooking.
- Drop a couple pinches of pepper to taste on the wrapped spears.
- COOKING - Times depend on thickness of the Asparagus Spear and Bacon.
- With the temp around 350 for 3 to 4 minutes.Cover closed.
- Turn each spear over and resume grilling for another 4 minutes. Closed.
- Move the spears to the top rack and resume cooking for another three to four minutes. Again, with the cover closed.
- SERVING.
- Put it on a plate and eat with your favorite main course. Enjoy!
