Cooking instruction summary:

1. Preheat the oven to 400. Wrap 6 thick asparagus spears with two slices of raw bacon.
2. Place on a small baking sheet and spritz the bundle with nonstick cooking spray, just to coat the asparagus lightly. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the asparagus is tender.
4. Make the cheddar polenta while the asparagus is roasting: Bring chicken broth to a boil in a small saucepan.
5. Stir in polenta.Lower the heat and cook slowly for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture has thickened.
6. Stir in the cheese. I used extra sharp cheddar, but any kind would work. Add a dash of salt and pepper, or more to taste.
