These asparagus wrapped in bacon bake in 15 minutes after being doused in brown sugar and butter. With only 10 minutes of prep time they are perfect to throw in at the very end of a holiday meal prep. This recipe is four servings, but is very simple to double or triple if you are hosting.
Picking out Asparagus
Making This Without Bacon
If you love the idea of this recipe but you just aren’t so sure about the bacon, then you should definitely try my Oven Roasted Asparagus. It is so easy to make and one of my favorite side dishes. It also makes for a pretty healthy side dish!
The tips, the bit at the very top, should look beautiful. Pass by ones with wilted tips or tips that aren’t closed tight.The stalks of the asparagus should appear plump, not like a plant that needs to be watered.Asparagus comes in many different colors (green, white, and purple), but whatever variety you are buying, make sure the color is vibrant.
