We had a BBQ at EmerFit for Memorial Day and I decided to bring these tasty little treats. I had been looking for a group of people to try them out on and knew my fellow gym friends wouldn't mind. :) These were gone before the rest of the food was even ready. They are delicious!!!
Bacon-Wrapped Dates
16 oz. pitted dates
raw, unsalted whole almonds
2 lb. bacon, sliced in half
toothpicks
Preheat broiler. Place 1 almond inside date. Wrap 1/2 piece bacon around date. Secure with toothpick. Broil about 10 minutes, until evenly browned and crisp. Watch them closely so they don't burn (believe me - I've done it). :)
Ohhhhhhh yes, here they are! Fantastic! The sweet of the date with the salty of the bacon with the added texture of the almond! A whole lot of yumminess rolled into a single bite!
