Bacon Wrapped Breadsticks Recipe

Start by preheating your oven to 350 °F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, stir together the Parmesan, garlic salt, cayenne, and nutmeg. This will be your coating later.

Gently wrap each long breadstick with a slice of bacon, being careful not to snap the breadsticks. Place the wrapped breadsticks onto the prepared cookie sheet. If a breadstick breaks, just cut the bacon to fit the smaller pieces and add them to the sheet; they'll still be good.

Bake the breadsticks for 15 minutes, or until the bacon reaches your preferred crispness. You want it cooked through and slightly browned.

While the bacon and breadsticks are still warm from the oven, roll them through the Parmesan and spice mixture prepared earlier. The warmth helps the cheese and spices adhere. Set them aside to cool.

These can be made a day ahead and hold up well, even at room temperature or cold.
