Steps:
- Combine minced garlic in a small bowl with 3 Tbsp olive oil and set aside while preparing your asparagus and gathering the rest of your ingredients.
- Break off the fibrous ends of your asparagus by holding the base end and snapping it wherever it snaps. Discard the ends. I like this method most because it ensures that you won't have any fibrous ends. You can also use a knife to cut the ends off about 1" up from the base.
- Transfer asparagus to a rimmed baking sheet then drizzle and toss it with the garlic oil. Sprinkle lightly with salt & pepper and bake at 400°F for 13-18 mins (depending on the thickness of asparagus) or until lightly browned and easily pierced with a fork.
- While baking, saute 6 strips of bacon, drain on paper towels then coarsely chop. Serve asparagus warm and sprinkle the top with bacon.

BACON-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS
Easy-to-prepare appetizer. Laurita has a good idea so the asparagus does not over cook, to pre-cook bacon a little. So try my Recipe #187790 to avoid over cooking asparagus.

BOB'S FAMOUS BACON ASPARAGUS
I had these for the first time ever about 2 years ago on Christmas Eve at my sister's house. It's our Christmas Eve family "thing" to spend the day there with the "immediate families" ... my parents, my sister, brother-in-law, their girls, myself, my fiance and my 3 kids. Anyway ... Bob is my brother-in-law, and he made these awesome treats for the snack tray. I HATE asparagus, and usually don't care much for bacon ... but these are AMAZING!! Super easy to make, and even the kids LOVE them!
