To make Bacon-Wrapped Avocado Bites, you will need:

– 2 ripe avocados
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
– Toothpicks
– Baking sheet
– Parchment paper
– Top with your favorite condiment or dip (Optional)
The first step is to preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Next, cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Carefully peel the skin off the halves. Slice each half into three wedges, so you have a total of twelve wedges.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the avocado wedges. Gently press the seasonings into the avocado. Arrange the bacon strips over the parchment paper and place one avocado wedge onto the middle of each bacon strip. Wrap the bacon around the avocado, making sure both ends of the strip meet. Secure the bacon in place with a toothpick.
Once all the bites are wrapped, place the baking sheet into the preheated oven. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the bacon is cooked through and has a nice crisp texture. Remove from the oven and use kitchen tongs to carefully remove each bite from the baking sheet.
