Original Hungry Canary Recipe · Handwritten Kitchen Notes
Bacon-Wrapped Asparagus
Ingredients
- 24 asparagus stalks
- 12 slices bacon
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Diced pepper, to taste (handwritten note reads “Diced pepper”)
Method and Original Notes
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Trim the asparagus.
- Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper (the handwritten method specifies salt and pepper, though salt is not separately listed in the ingredients).
- Cut each bacon slice in half and wrap a half-slice around each thin asparagus stalk (the creator's likely method, based on using 24 thin stalks and 12 slices of bacon).
- Bake 10 minutes, then turn and bake another 10–15 minutes. The note also suggests broiling 1–2 minutes for a crisp finish; watch closely.

From the Creator’s Kitchen
Handwritten recipe. The creator usually chooses very thin asparagus stalks and recalls likely cutting the 12 bacon slices in half to wrap the 24 stalks individually. This is a recollection rather than a written instruction on the original card. Cook bacon until done.
