ASPARAGUS WITH BACON

Steps:

• (Optional) cook an additional 8 slices of bacon to wrap around asparagus into bundles (2 slices each bundle).
• Cook bacon until nice and crispy; remove to paper towels to drain. (If wrapping into bundles, cook 8 slices of bacon so that bacon is cooked, but NOT crispy. Crispy bacon is very difficult to wrap around the asparagus if it is too crispy).
• Steam the asparagus for 4 - 6 minutes.
• Remove some of the bacon grease from the pan, leaving two to three tablespoons. In a large fry pan or Wok, add onion, butter, bacon grease and cook onion until soft. Add asparagus to the pan and sauté over medium to low heat for about 4 minutes, turning asparagus every 15 seconds.
• Put in a bowl and toss with the mustard and vinegar. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
• (Optional) Split Asparagus into 4 bundles and wrap with 2 slices of bacon.
