[edit] Ingredients

1

cup grated parmesan

2

teaspoons garlic salt or powder

1

teaspoon of cayenne pepper

½

teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg

24

slices bacon

24

long breadsticks

You will also need: parchment paper

[edit] Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350

Step 2

Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the parmesan, garlic salt, cayenne and nutmeg.

Step 4

GENTLY wrap each breadstick with a slice of bacon (so breadsticks don’t break), then place wrapped bread sticks on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. If you break one, just cut bacon to fit and add to sheet. No one will care if the pieces are small.

Step 5

Bake for 15 minutes or until bacon is cooked to your liking.

Step 6

Next, roll the breadsticks in cheese & spices. Do this while bacon and breadsticks are still warm, then set aside and let cool. (Peter loves this part!)

Step 7

Can be made a day ahead and even taste great cold (hey, it’s bacon)!

[edit] About Bacon Wrapped Breadsticks

I’ve been making this EASY BACON appetizer for years. The original recipe is from Paula Deen, and they can be made a day or two before you need them. I added cayenne (for heat) and fresh nutmeg to the original mix.

Paula Deen likes sesame seed breadsticks because the seeds help hold on the bacon, but sometimes I use cheese-flavored breadsticks for that extra punch.
