With asparagus season finally on the horizon it is time to revisit some of our favorite asparagus recipes. Cooking asparagus with bacon is one of my new favorite ways to prepare it. The salty meat pairs beautifully with the strongly flavored green stalks. The salt makes them sweeter and gives the whole dish a nice crunch. Making this dish is really quite easy and is perfect for spring entertaining. I recommend using the thick green stalks of asparagus when you make this. I think they have more flavor and roast more evenly than the thin variety. When the dish is ready be sure to serve it up warm to your guests. They’ll love the new twist on their favorite vegetable and gladly welcome spring!
