ingredients:
- 12 medjool dates
- 1 good quality mexican chorizo
- smoked bacon, 6 slices cut in half
- toothpicks
- your favorite tomato sauce
- a few basil leaves, chiffonade
directions:
- preheat oven to 375 degrees
- gently remove pit from dates and a little bit of the fruit inside (so you can add more chorizo!) with a small spoon; try not to cut the date as much as possible
- fill dates with chorizo, either via cutting the corner of a ziploc bag and using it as a filler or making mini balls out of the chorizo and filling the dates
- wrap each date with a bacon half and secure with a toothpick
- bake the dates, bacon seam down, for about 30 minutes until chorizo is cooked through and bacon is crisp
- meanwhile, gently heat your favorite tomato sauce
- assemble your plate with some sauce on the bottom, dates on top, and some basil chiffonade on top...enjoy!
