BACON-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS
While asparagus season is here, keep this recipe near. It's a pretty and impressive side perfect for brunch or dinner-maybe alongside a steak! And it's a godsend when entertaining, since it's made with only five ingredients, a single pan and the simplest of techniques. The trick is wrapping bundles of asparagus, instead of individual stalks. As the bundles bake, the bacon drippings infuse the stalks with smoky flavor and transform this sometimes-woody vegetable into a silky smooth and meltingly tender masterpiece which, in our experience, no one can resist!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Divide the asparagus spears into 8 bundles. Wrap each bundle in the middle of the spears with one piece of bacon. Place the bundles seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bake until the bacon is fully cooked, about 25 minutes.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the flour over the butter and stir. Cook until the mixture is golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 1 minute. Stir in the mustard powder, onion powder, nutmeg and remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the milk a little at a time and continue cooking and whisking until the mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted, then take off the heat.
- Carefully transfer the bacon bundles to a serving platter. Pour the cheese sauce over the asparagus and sprinkle with the fried onions. Serve warm.
