Bacon Wrapped Medjool Dates Stuffed with Marcona Almonds and Blue Cheese Recipe: Sweet, savory, salty and of course, bacon!
Ingredients
- 48 whole Marcona Almonds
- 24 whole Medjool Dates
- 12 teaspoons Blue Cheese
- 8 strips Bacon
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Lay the almonds on an un-greased baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes or until they are fragrant. Remove almonds from oven and allow to cool.
Meanwhile, cut the dates in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Fill each date with ½ teaspoon blue cheese and 2 almonds. Fold dates back together (they will seal themselves). Wrap each date with ⅓ strip of bacon and secure with toothpick.
Bake on greased baking sheet for 20 minutes.
