This was a REAL easy appetizer...
Take bread sticks, the thicker ones that are about 5 inches long. Take a half slice of bacon and wrap it around the break stick spiraling around till it covers from end to end. I left a little space on each end. Bake on a baking sheet at 350 for 15 minutes or until bacon is done. While they are hot roll them in grated Parmesan cheese. They can be served warm or room temperature.
I served these with mini tomato sandwiches...
Slice Roma tomatoes. Lay them on a paper towel and salt and pepper and let sit for a few minutes so the water will be absorbed by the paper towels. Meanwhile cut circles the size of the tomato slices out of white bread. You'll need a special cookie cutter for this. I have set that ranges from small to very large so I can so any size. If you just have a small one you will want to select the tomato size accordingly. Spread mayonnaise on each side of the bread circle and add a tomato slice. You can also add a few bacon crumbles if you like. I buy the REAL bacon pieces, not bacon bits.
I also served toasted pecans....
Melt 1/4 cup butter. Add one tablespoon of Worcestershire. Add 1 teaspoon of Paula Deen's house seasoning. (I have posted this recipe already). Add 4 cups of pecans and toss until covered in the butter mixture. Spread on a shallow pan and bake at 300 for 15 minutes. Stir at least once during the cooking time. Cool and serve.
To top it off, I served Peach Bellinis. Can you feel a Georgia theme here? A peach bellini is half peach nectar and half Presecco (wine).
