Bacon Wrapped Dates


If you don't feel like eating a million of these then don't make them cause you will eat a million of them if you make them.
There. I said it cause it's true.
Now GO MY PETS! Make these ASAP!

Bacon Wrapped Dates

Ingredients:
Nitrate-free bacon (1 package (8 oz))
Dates, organic if possible (1 pound)

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cut the bacon slices in half.
3. Pit the dates with your fingers or with a paring knife.
4. Wrap each date with a half a slice of bacon. Use toothpicks if necessary.
5. Set on a baking dish, ideally one with high sides, so the bacon grease doesn’t spill all over your oven when it melts.
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon gets crispy.
7. Remove from oven and transfer the bacon-wrapped dates to a serving platter.Note: Make sure you save that perfectly good bacon grease — pour it into a cast iron skillet and use it for something else!

*I used regular bacon and dates. Nothing special. SUPER TASTY!
