I've made these several times and they're always a hit. I like to use different types of bacon, like applewood smoked bacon or peppered bacon.

Carrots and bacon are a classic combination, and this recipe takes it to the next level. The onions add a nice sweetness and the Dijon mustard adds a bit of tang.

These bacon-wrapped carrots were a hit! So easy to make and so delicious. I used a variety of carrots, including rainbow carrots, and they all turned out perfectly. The bacon was crispy and the carrots were tender and flavorful.
