Bacon Twists

By Theresa Gilliam

Ingredients

4 slices thin-cut bacon
4 disposable wooden chopsticks

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Wrap a piece of bacon around each chopstick in a spiral. Place the chopsticks on a rack over a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake until the bacon is brown and crispy, 15-20 minutes. Cool completely before gently removing the chopstick from the bacon.
