Ingredients
1
pound
asparagus
trimmed
1
teaspoon
olive oil
1
teaspoon
salt
6
slices
bacon
fried and diced
1
clove
garlic
minced
1
cup
shredded Gruyere cheese
¼
teaspoon
red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Toss the asparagus with oil and salt.
Place half of the asparagus in an 8x8 baking dish. Top with half of the cheese, bacon, and garlic. Repeat the layers.
Bake for 25 minutes or until asparagus is as tender as you'd like.
Sprinkle with red pepper flakes just before serving.
Notes
We love the flavor of Gruyere cheese, but you could use any type of cheese you like. Mozzarella and provolone would both be tasty.
