Recipe Introduction
I highly recommend soaking the toothpicks, I remembered it halfway through and the ones I didn't soak burnt. This was fast and so good.
List of Ingredients
10 fresh asparagus spears -- trimmed
1/8 teaspoon pepper
5 bacon strips -- halved lengthwise
Recipe
Place asparagus on a sheet of waxed paper; coat with cooking spray. Sprinkle with pepper; turn to coat. Wrap a bacon piece around each spear; secure ends with toothpicks.
Grill, uncovered, over medium heat for 4-6 minutes on each side or until bacon is crisp. Discard toothpicks.
Yield: 2-3 servings.
