Allowable for the weigh-loss menu. The thin asparagus can be relatively affordable from the market or Wal-Mart in bunches. Just wrap the asparagus in bacon, and bake. Alternately, you can just simply roast the asparagus in the oven, drizzled with olive oil, a bit of salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese, if you don't have any bacon on hand.
Asparagus is great because it helps with circulation and heat in the body. Good for high blood pressure and cholesterol, so it balances out with the bacon. Asparagus by itself is beneficial for the lungs, and may help against bronchitis.
Ingredients:- 1 lb. of asparagus, (cut off the chewy, fibrous ends)
- 10 pieces of bacon, cut in half
- 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- Ground black pepper
- 1 lemon, in slices.
- 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- Ground black pepper
- 1 lemon, in slices.

piece of asparagus and place on a baking sheet covered in aluminum foil.
2. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar and olive oil over the asparagus and sprinkle with a few dashes of ground black pepper.
3. Bake for 15 minutes, then flip each asparagus over and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy
