Bacon, Asparagus, and Cheese Sandwiches

When I was a kid my sister and I LOVED when my mom made these. We would always argue about the order the ingredients should go on the toast. (Of course, I’m submitting this in the order I liked.) It was also a good way to get us to eat asparagus.

Step: 1

Adjust oven rack to upper position, and set oven to broil. You may also use a toaster oven to cook the sandwiches if you don’t want to broil them in the oven.

Step: 2

Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

Step: 3

Place a few spears of asparagus on a slice of bread. Top with 2 slices crisp bacon then a slice of cheese.

Step: 4

Toast under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
