Description

This delicious vegetable side to any meal is easy to prepare and loved by everyone who has tried it.

Ingredients
  • 10 slices bacon, diced
  • 1 tablespoon crushed garlic
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 (10 ounce) packages frozen whole green beans
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions
  1. 1. Cook bacon in a large skillet set over medium-high heat until crisp. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon pieces and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off excess grease from the skillet, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pan.
  2. 2. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes to the bacon grease and cook over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add green beans and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until beans are tender but still a little crunchy, about 10 minutes. Return bacon to the pan and toss with the beans before serving.
