Description

These make a great side dish with holiday meals (or any day of the week when you are feeling naughty)!

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (14.5 Oz. Can) Whole Green Beans
  • 15 slices Bacon
  • 12 dashes Garlic Powder
  • ½ sticks Butter
  • ½ cups Light Brown Sugar

Preparation

First, drain all the green beans in a colander. Then, slice the bacon in half, making 30 pieces of bacon. Spray a glass or metal baking dish with cooking spray. Make a little work station with the bacon, green beans and the dish.

Working with a small handful of green beans (5-8 usually), wrap one piece of bacon around each, and place seam side down on the baking sheet. You want the bacon to wrap completely around the green beans. Continue until you have used up all the green beans and/or bacon or the dish is full. Sprinkle liberally with the garlic powder—you don’t have to salt and pepper the beans because the bacon is pretty salty.

Melt the butter and brown sugar together and stir until well mixed. Pour immediately over the beans, pouring slowly to cover all the beans.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and cooked through. Serve warm.

Note: this recipe can be made with much more green beans or bacon. Just make sure to sprinkle with the garlic powder and use equal parts butter and brown sugar. Enjoy!

These were wonderful. I used frozen green beans that I left thawing in the fridge for a couple of hours. I made them to take to a new mama and her family for dinner today. Just got a call requesting the recipe. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

In response to Trish, these can totally be made with fresh or frozen green beans! The canned aspect comes from my grandma, but they are delicious any way around.

minus the brown sugar on the asparagus, though!

Why are these simple things never able to pop into my mind? Thank you so much for sharing, I can’t wait to try them! I use the frozen beans, personally, but may even try them with fresh ones. I don’t go for canned beans much.
