We have a new favorite way to eat asparagus at our house.
I originally saw this recipe at Anna's blog.
I adapted it just a bit and we've been enjoying it
ever since. And it's very easy...
Wrap 5-6 stalks of fresh asparagus in thin sliced bacon.
Lay on foil covered jelly roll pan. Generously
drizzle with paste made from equal parts soy sauce
and brown sugar. Drizzle tips with olive oil.
Sprinkle with kosher salt.
Bake 375 for 30-40 minutes until spears are tender-crisp and bacon is done.
Enjoy.
I had seconds. Mmmm.

I'd have seconds, too. I love it when you post a recipe that I can actually eat without ticking off my doctor!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds delicious! Bacon makes everything better.
ReplyDeleteYummo! I love asparagus any way and this sounds delicious. :-)
ReplyDeleteSilver ~ I try to balance the desserts with something else...just for you! lol.
ReplyDeleteWe LOVE roasted asparagus, but I've never tried it this way before. Bacon and brown sugar are such a fabulous combo - add asparagus to that - oh my! SO glad you shared!!
ReplyDeletei think you may have just found a way for me to eat asparagus again...had to eat a raw asparagus and mayo sandwich in college..did me wrong...
ReplyDeleteYou got my cheeks a hoppin girl...YUMMY! ;D
ReplyDeleteOh yummy!! This sounds very similar to a recipe called "green bean bundles" which I also love!! will try these soon!! I love asparagus!
ReplyDeleteI'm in bed right now and I'm craving these!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures...I think I can smell them! Or am I dreaming?
All I know is, I'm off to the store for some asparagus first thing tomorrow morning!
Mm-mmmm....this would be nice as a 'spoil' now and then.
ReplyDeleteDevoted Betsy's Blog follower who likes bacon but dislikes asparagus wishes to meet fellow follower who dislikes bacon but has a fondness for asparagus. Object - clear plates.
ReplyDeleteAlan, may I introduce you to Mr Toast? Mr. Toast, Alan! Clean Plates! lol.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Alan ~ you just might light asparagus like this!
ReplyDeleteBrian ~ lol...Ew. That would do it for sure. At least they let you have the mayo to help it slide down. ha.
ReplyDeleteFANTASTIC. I SO love asparagus! Bacon too! I have had this but NOT with your soy/sugar sauce!
ReplyDeleteUmmm... yes please! What isn't delicious wrapped in bacon?!
ReplyDeleteNot only does it look delicious, what a attractive way to server it.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to surprise Don with this as he loves asparagus....
I bet it smells really good baking.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
ReplyDeleteLooks absolutely delicious - I love bacon and the combination with asparagus must be irresistable.
ReplyDeleteHere's a bit of valuable useless information for you, Betsy. If you recorded the word Asparagus into your dictaphone. tape recorder or whatever and played it backwards you would hear the word Cigarette.
LOL
Just thought you'd like to hear that LOL

Eddie ~ that is VERY clever! You know I love word games like that!
ReplyDeleteBetsy, I have a bowl just like that pattern... a soup bowl actually but not a whole set. Used to sell it in my friends shop. How familiar it looks!
ReplyDeleteThat asparagus looks delish!
That sounds really good!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I am all about some of this! Anything wrapped in bacon really though!
ReplyDeleteThat is too tempting. It looks so good. I have never seen it done that way before now.
ReplyDeleteWow, one thing here finally that does not look appetizing to me. Well teh asparagus deos but the bacon? no, I don;t like gristle. :) Still, if you made it,...maybe its ok!
ReplyDeleteLovely, and cut up in rounds, it looks like sushi rolls!
ReplyDeleteThese looks wonderful!!! It's on my grocery list!
