Green Bean Bundles

Category: , ,

This is one of our favorite side dishes for the the Holidays. It would also be a great side dish for an elegant dinner, not that we have those that often with 2 small children.

I prefer the French (Haricot Vert) green beans because they are a little thinner so they don't have to cook as long, but if French green beans aren't available, you can use any old type of green beans, just parboil for 3-5 minutes and then place in ice bath to stop the the cooking. Once they are cool, wrap in bacon and bake.

1-1/2 pounds French/Haricot Vert green beans

3/4 pound bacon, cut in half

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon garlic salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Wrap 7-10 green beans with bacon and place in prepared dish. Repeat, using all the green beans and bacon. Combine butter with brown sugar. Pour over green bean bundles and sprinkle with garlic salt. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 25 minutes.
