asparagus bundles
I went through my entire childhood thinking I hated asparagus. I remember telling my mom I didn’t like it, and I remember her asking, “Have you ever even tried it?” I can feel heads nodding right now. Of course I never tried it! It was green. I was a kid. Need I say more? I was over thirty years old before I finally tried asparagus. I’m making up for lost time now. I love it any way that it’s prepared. These bundles make it look almost too pretty to eat.

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Divide the asparagus spears into 12 bundles. Carefully wrap 1 piece of bacon around each bundle, starting about ½ inch from the bottom of the tips. Secure the bacon-wrapped spears with a toothpick. Lay the bundles in a low-sided casserole dish.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, soy sauce, garlic salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Pour the hot sugar mixture over the asparagus bundles. Transfer the dish to the oven and roast for 25 minutes, or until the spears have begun to wilt and the bacon looks fully cooked. Remove the toothpicks before serving.
