16 dates
2 ounces of mild feta cheese
8 slices of bacon, cut in half
parsley for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.

  • 4. Cut cheese into 16 (1 1/4 inch) sticks.
  • 5. Stuff each date with cheese.
  • 6. Wrap 1 bacon piece around each date, completely enclosing cheese. Secure with a tooth pick that has been soaked in water to prevent burning.
  • 7. Place on rack of broiler pan or cookie sheet lined with non-stick foil.
  • 8. Place in oven and bake for 14 to 15 minutes or until bacon is crisp, turning over after 8 minutes making sure all sides of bacon are crisp.

  • 10. Transfer to serving dish and serve warm or at room temperature.
  • 11. *The reason for buying dates with the pits in them is: I bought some pitted dates and thought I would save some time, but they all tore apart when I tried to put the cheese in them.
