Bacon Wrapped Pistachio Stuffed Dates

Makes 35 dates

Ingredients

• One package of whole pitted dates (about 35)
• 1 lb bacon slices
• ¼ cup shelled pistachios

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cook bacon in a skillet half way, you want it not raw but still bendable (it will crisp in the oven). You can skip this step if you do not want them crispy.
• Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Pat with paper towels to remove grease and let cool.
• Cut bacon slices into thirds with kitchen shears.
• Slice each date open in the middle, being careful not to cut all the way in half.
• Stuff each date with two pistachios.
• Wrap a 1/3 piece of bacon around the date and secure with a toothpick.
• Place wrapped dates on a lined baking sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes, checking halfway through and tossing if needed.
• Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain if needed.
• Serve warm or at room temp and enjoy.
