These dates are a great way to use up leftover bacon. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their fruit.

I'm not a big fan of bacon, but I still enjoyed these dates. The Asiago and smoked paprika really shine through.

I substituted goat cheese for the Asiago and they were still delicious. I think I might even prefer the goat cheese version.

These Asiago-stuffed dates are a delightful combination of sweet and savory flavors. The bacon and smoked paprika add a nice touch of smokiness and spice.
