Bacon-Wrapped Breadsticks Appetizer Recipe

These are so simple and fast to make, yet are a huge hit at parties. Also great for snacks. May be made a day ahead of time. Reheat in the microwave about 30 seconds to crisp up.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 pound thin-sliced bacon
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 box (4.4 ounces) garlic breadsticks

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 F. Place a metal baking rack inside a shallow 10 x 15-inch baking tray.

Slice each bacon strip in half lengthwise and sprinkle one side with grated Parmesan cheese. Wrap the bacon strips spirally around each breadstick and place on horizontal to the wires on the baking rack so they don't fall through.

Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until bacon is cooked. Sprinkle hot bacon-wrapped breadsticks with additional Parmesan cheese. Let cool before serving.

Yield: about 8 appetizer servings

Tailgatin' bacon, Member mfairbank

While the toughest part of this recipe was finding boxed breadsticks, it was simple to do and the results were great. I had to adjust the recipe slightly since we could only find sesame breadsticks. I used a little garlic powder in the parmesan and it worked fine. The breadsticks flew off the platter at our tailgate party! I'll have to double or triple the recipe next time. Thanks,
