Bacon wrapped mushrooms with grilled sirloin steak & asparagus

Grill night! If you like mushrooms you will love these bacon wrapped ones, perfect for camping. 



Bacon wrapped mushrooms

Ingredients
- button mushrooms
- bacon strips ( I used the end pieces of some middle bacon)

Directions
- cut the bacon into lengths that will go around the mushrooms with some overlap

- wrap a strip of bacon around each mushroom & place on a skewer, I cut some toothpicks in half to help secure the ends of the bacon into the mushrooms



- fill up your skewer with as many mushrooms as you would like, I did 3 per person



- we cooked these on a hot plate over the fire, you could easily do them on the BBQ at home 

- preheat the hot plate until hot, place the skewers on bacon side down

- turn skewers often so the bacon gets crispy & the mushroom cooks through


- we served ours with a piece of sirloin steak & also some grilled asparagus


- start the mushrooms first & give them about 3-4 minutes, then add the steak & asparagus & cook for a further 6-8 minutes depending on how you like your steak. Only turn your steak once, but keep turning the mushrooms & asparagus during the cooking time. 
- serve





These were pretty tasty & perfect with the steak. Getting a bite of the steak, bacon & mushroom all at once was yummy. Something different & a fairly healthy meal overall. Give it a go next time you go camping or have a BBQ.
