Bacon Wrapped Green Bean

By Tdunl

Ingredients

• 6 pieces of bacon- cut in half
• 1 (16 ounce) package frozen cut green beans (or fresh- fresh is best) use 6-7 green beans per wrap
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp butter

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a casserole dish.
1a. If using fresh green beans, place in boiling water for 4-5 minutes first. (This was suggested by someone, I don't know if this can be omitted. I have only done it with using this step)
2. I like to cook the bacon slightly before wrapping green bean. (I put in 400 degree oven on cookie sheet with parchment paper for 10 min or til bacon is just starting to cook). Then let cool.
2. Set out the bacon, green beans and casserole dish in a little assembly line. Lay out a half strip of bacon. place a small bunch of green beans (6 or 7) onto the strip of bacon and roll up into a bundle.
3.Place the bundle into the casserole dish, seam side down. Repeat with remaining bacon strips and green beans. You can pack these pretty tight in the pan, just know that if the bacon is touching another bundle they take some prying to get apart.
4. Drizzle green beans with melted butter and then sprinkle with the brown sugar and salt and pepper.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until browned and heated through, about 20 minutes.
