Having to pick my favorite cheese would be as though you were asking me to pick my favorite child, please don’t make me choose. I just couldn’t! So much goodness. But, I will say, halloumi would be up there in my top five! And if you wrap said halloumi with bacon and bake it until gold edged and crispy? Those Bacon Wrapped Halloumi Fries might take the lead…
Add a creamy Green Goddess Dip? Guaranteed First Place! 🥇
Perfect as an appetizer, snack or alongside a deliciously fresh salad, you will most definitely making this over and over again!

Ingredients
225 g halloumi
7 strips bacon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C).
Cut the halloumi block into half lengthwise. Then cut into 1 inch (2,5 cm) strips, so you have 14 halloumi fries. Cut the bacon strips in half horizontally. Carefully wrap a piece of bacon around each halloumi fry.
Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 18-20 minute until the edges of the halloumi are browned. Grill on high for a further 2 minutes to make the bacon crispy.
Serve as soon as cool enough to handle with Green Goddess Dip (see below).

1/2 tsp salt
