Ingredients

1 large baking potato (1/2 lb.), cut crosswise in half
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. each dried rosemary leaves, dried thyme leaves and paprika
12 slices OSCAR MAYER Fully Cooked Thick Cut Bacon
1 Tbsp. KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese

Steps:

Heat oven to 400°F.
Place cut side of each potato half on work surface, then cut vertically into thin slices, cutting slices as thinly as possible; place in medium bowl.
Add oil and dry seasonings; toss until potatoes are evenly coated with seasoning mixture.
Place 2 bacon slices in vertical row on work surface, with short ends of slices slightly overlapping. Top with 1/6 of the potato slices, with curved edges of slices slightly overlapping and straight sides of potatoes even with one long side of bacon slices. Roll up, starting at one short end to resemble rose. Secure with wooden toothpick. Place in muffin pan cup sprayed with cooking spray. Repeat with remaining potato and bacon slices; cover.
Bake 40 min. or until potatoes are tender and golden brown, covering after 15 min.
Sprinkle with Parmesan; bake, uncovered, 3 min.
