I have seen alot of recipes for these with brown sugar, salad dressing, canned green beans etc. I say keep it simple. They taste great without all the added stuff.

How To Make fresh green bean bacon bundles

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cover cookie sheet with foil. If u have a rack to fit cookie sheet put it on top.

Step 2

Prepare green beans by snipping the ends off but leave them whole. Place in saucepan and add water and salt. Cover with lid & bring to boil. Cook 5 min. Rinse with cold water until cooled off. Dry off with towel. Slice each bacon piece in half. Wrap a bundle of green beans(6-8) with a piece of bacon. Lay on rack bacon end down.
Step 3

Bake for 15 minutes. Turn on broiler and broil until bacon is crispy. Turn over with tongs and broil another 5 minutes. The bacon flavors the green beans so much, you need nothing else on them. Enjoy!.
