Cottage Bacon Wrapped Asparagus

This isn’t just your basic bacon wrapped asparagus. I’m not a fan of bundles of asparagus wrapped with a thin piece of bacon. I upped the meat to veggie ratio by using a single sheet of cottage bacon to wrap a single asparagus spear, parallel. Thicker asparagus spears work better than thin ones. They will only take 15 minutes in the oven for the bacon to cook through, still leaving the asparagus slightly al dente.
