Recipe: Bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with feta cheese

Recipe: Bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with feta cheese

Over the years I have tried many variations of bacon-wrapped dates, and they are usually delicious.  But once I tried the version created by my new friend Nate on a birthday celebration trip to upstate New York, I completely fell in love with this snack. 

Nate’s secret was to stuff the dates with feta cheese. The combination of the rich flavor from the feta with the sweet dates and salty bacon is a perfect mouthwatering combination. I made these at a little wine and cheese party and they quickly disappeared.
