Sautéed Asparagus with Bacon

Ingredients:

• 1 slice of lean bacon
• 12 asparagus spears, wooden ends removed, cut into thirds
• 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
• Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste

Directions:

• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add a piece of lean bacon to the skillet then cook for 1-2 minutes, flipping half way through cooking, until crisp. Place the bacon onto paper towels to drain. Crumble the bacon into large bits.
• Add the chopped asparagus to the skillet with the bacon grease. Cook, stirring often, until crisp-tender. Add the Dijon mustard then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Gently stir until evenly coated. Toss in the crumbled bacon and serve immediately. Enjoy.
