Bacon-Wrapped Vegetables
Wrapping a portion of vegetables in bacon and roasting them until tender makes such a pretty (and delicious!) package. You can replace the carrots and parsnips here with different vegetables in different seasons…say, asparagus and scallions in the spring or green and yellow squash in the summer. In that case, par-cook the bacon first for about 5 minutes, then wrap it around the veg and roast for 10 to 12 minutes—those tender vegetables need less time to cook.
