The Good Green Beans



This is a simple recipe that I like to make for Holiday dinners or when we have company. We like them so much that we now call them “The Good Green Beans.” They can be made up in advance, or be transferred to a slow cooker to keep warm when you need your stove top free for other things. I have even frozen the leftovers with good results. What I like best about these Green Beans is that they go together in just a few minutes and they are super frugal!

The Good Green Beans

1 onion, chopped
½ lb. bacon, chopped
2 lbs. green beans (fresh, frozen, or canned)
Salt and Pepper to taste

Sauté the onion and bacon in a large pot. When thoroughly cooked, add green beans and chicken broth. Simmer until green beans are tender. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Frugal Tip: Stockpile frozen veggies when they go on sale. This way you will always have a healthy side dish on hand.
