What's special about this asparagus recipe? I'm so glad you asked! Well (1) it's easy, (2) the oil is infused with garlic, (3) it has B-A-C-O-N!! Need I say more?

Ingredients
- 2 bunches of asparagus ~2 lbs
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 6 medium garlic cloves minced
- salt & pepper
- 6 lices of bacon optional
Instructions
- Combine minced garlic in a small bowl with 3 Tbsp olive oil and set aside while preparing your asparagus and gathering the rest of your ingredients.
- Break off the fibrous ends of your asparagus by holding the base end and snapping it wherever it snaps. Discard the ends. I like this method most because it ensures that you won't have any fibrous ends. You can also use a knife to cut the ends off about 1" up from the base.
- Transfer asparagus to a rimmed baking sheet then drizzle and toss it with the garlic oil. Sprinkle lightly with salt & pepper and bake at 400°F for 13-18 mins (depending on the thickness of asparagus) or until lightly browned and easily pierced with a fork.
- While baking, saute 6 strips of bacon, drain on paper towels then coarsely chop. Serve asparagus warm and sprinkle the top with bacon.
