Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide 24 trimmed asparagus spears into 8 bundles of 3 spears each.
- Step 2: Wrap each asparagus bundle tightly with one half slice of bacon, starting at the bottom and spiraling up. Place bundles seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Step 3: Drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil evenly over the bundles and sprinkle each with 1/2 tsp black pepper and 1/2 tsp garlic powder.
- Step 4: Roast bundles in the oven for 20-25 minutes until bacon is crisp and asparagus is tender when pierced with a fork.
- Step 5: Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the hot bundles so the cheese melts slightly. Serve warm as a savory keto side dish.
