# Ingredients:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 6 strips thinly sliced bacon
02 - 18 asparagus stalks, ends trimmed
03 - 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
04 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
05 - 2 tablespoons melted butter
06 - 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze or vinegar

# Instructions:

01 - Turn on your oven and set it to 400F (200C). Cover a big baking tray with parchment paper so nothing sticks.
02 - Grab three asparagus spears, wrap a piece of bacon around them, and repeat. Put them on the tray, brush with some melted butter, and sprinkle salt and pepper over them.
03 - Pop the bacon-wrapped asparagus into the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the bacon looks crispy and golden.
04 - Take the tray out of the oven and brush the bundles with balsamic vinegar for a tangy twist.

# Notes:

01 - Keep extra pieces in a sealed container in the fridge and eat within 3 days.
02 - Freeze by letting them cool, then storing them in a zip-top bag for up to 6 months.
03 - To warm them up again, use your microwave, air fryer, or an already hot oven.
