Chorizo-Stuffed, Bacon-Wrapped Dates
Makes about 22 pieces
I thought this would be a good recipe for those looking for paleo-friendly appetizers this New Year’s Eve. Enjoy!
1 pound package medjool dates
4 ounces Spanish chorizo
11 slices bacon, cut in half
Preheat oven to 400F.
Remove casing from the chorizo and cut into bite-sized pieces. Slice open the dates and remove the pits. Stuff each date with a piece of chorizo. Wrap each stuffed date with ½ slice of bacon. Place bacon-wrapped dates on a baking sheet and bake until bacon is cooked through (approx. 20 minutes). You may want to turn dates halfway through baking to ensure even cooking of the bacon.
Is there a different class schedule for Friday and Saturday?
Anyone notice that Kristen Clever did 18+ rounds of Nate with the 2pood? Amazing.
Chorizo stuffed bacon wrapped dates sounds and looks AMAZING!!!!!!

Jean, there will be at least an open gym tomorrow morning from 10-12. I know Bryce, Zack, and myself will be around.
Also, if anyone would like to join me I plan on closing out the year with a Hero WOD tomorrow morning:
“Bull”
Two rounds for time of:
200 Double-unders
135 pound Overhead squat, 50 reps
50 Pull-ups
Run 1 mile
I’m going to have to scale the OHS to #115, but I’m budgeting about an hour or more for this workout. Would love to do this alongside someone else.
All Day – what time are you doing Bull?
Thanks, Anthony.
Robot–I was thinking probably around 10am as I’ve got to head out by noon.
Erin O: those are like Paleo candy!!! YUM! When are you gonna make me some?? I may attempt this one as they look and sound so good!
Eileen – Definitely try them! They are super simple to put together. You can even assemble them a few hours ahead (keep refrigerated) and pop them in the oven right before guests arrive if you’re making them for a party.
[...] Chorizo-Stuff, Bacon-Wrapped Dates [via Crossfit Chicago] [...]
[...] Last week our gym (Crossfit Chicago), posted a recipe for bacon-wrapped dates that looked so amazing I thought about it constantly for about three days. When we got the invite for this weekend, I thought about the fact that pigs in a blanket used to be my favorite Superbowl food, and that these little guys were basically a more high-brow, paleo version of that old favorite. Clearly, the stars had aligned, and I needed to make these immediately. I tweaked CFC’s version slightly–using half of each date since the ones I had were mutants–but you can find their full version here. [...]
Hey! They serve these at Avec! I LOOOOOVVEEE THESE! Awesome!
