You know how you cover your face with both hands while anticipating a scary part of a movie but leave just enough room for one eye to peek through your fingers? That's totally me right now. I cringe to think about the first reaction one might experience in response to a recipe like this... and I get it. Reactions will vary but most likely will range from "disgusting!" to "interesting!" to "are you kidding me?!"; either way, these bacon-wrapped strawberries are definitely something that you should try. Imagine salty, crispy bacon paired with a sweet, delicate strawberry. Hard to imagine? That's the response I got from a few people upon description. I don't blame you if you don't try it; however, I would challenge you to open your mind and give your taste buds a little ride with this unconventional approach to strawberries. I dare you. You might be pleasantly surprised - just as I was.
Note: Hulling the strawberries is optional. I like to keep the leaves intact just for aesthetic purposes. If you choose not to hull them, the leaves will become crisp and brittle, so you may have a few pieces that crumble off when you pick them up to take a bite. While strawberry leaves are edible, the texture is probably something you wouldn't enjoy, so use your own discretion.
