... are the greatest thing in the world!

I made a batch of them the other day, and we all loved them. And they're so easy: take some pitted dates, stuff them with little sticks of parmesan, wrap with bacon, and stick in the oven for 10 minutes.

The most difficult part was finding our box of toothpicks.

Made from this recipe, found via The Amateur Gourmet.

This is the kind of "cooking" I can get behind!

Ummm YUM!

[this is good]

i'm now inspired to try to duplicate that!

Looks intriguing!! A quick thing I love to make is dates stuffed with soft goat cheese...yum yum!!

I had something similar recently, only they were stuffed with tiny bits of chorizo. Tres yummy!

oooo i bet you should add some pear in there.

try a blue cheese instead of parmesan.

Quite tasty. I've also done chorizo-stuffed (mexican not spanish) and wrapped in bacon, if you want a meatier experience.

Also, for savory instead of sweet, try baked parmesean-stuffed green olives.

Yummy!!!

Gorgonzola plays very well in here too, I'd think better than parmesan since you'll already be getting fatty-salty from the bacon.

Another delicious appetizer along this line is the black mission fig which is so abundant right now, quartered, tucked into a strip of proscuitto with a dab of chevre inside! Flash sear it in a pan and serve warm once the proscuitto has started to caramelize & chevre begins to ooze out of the sides!

Fresh figs halved, prosciutto wrapped around the exterior and dolloped with some gorgonzolaj on the cut middle, then grilled quickly under a hot grill. Similar idea. Equally delicious.

Those dates sound very yummy. Will have to try.

How could something so good sounding look so...BAD?
