Bacon Wrapped Dates

289.  This is one of the most simplest and surprisingly delicious hors d'oeuvre you will serve at your next get together.  Bacon Wrapped Dates.

Now when I first heard of the idea I could not imagine the flavors all melding together.  Until I tasted them!

Unbelievable and surprising in flavor.  And, you can't stop eating them. 

Simply cut bacon into small 4" pieces.  Use a firm, flavorful cheese like soft parmesan or gouda cut into small rectangles. It is up to you how salty of a cheese you want to use.
Take dates and stuff the inside with the cheese.

Then wrap the date around with the bacon piece and place a tooth pick to hold together.

Place on a baking sheet

Bake in the oven till the bacon is crispy and cheese is oozing out.

Remove from oven, place on a serving platter and enjoy!

Bacon Wrapped Dates will be your new favorite!

"I unfortunately still crave (bacon), which is the meat candy of the world."
