I am trying very hard to eat more vegetables and my husband will actually eat green beans. I adapted this recipe from Allrecipes, using onion powder because we don't like whole onion, and using bacon in place of ham because it was what I already had in the house. These were quite tasty and I would definitely make them again.
Country Green Beans:
Adapted from allrecipes.com
1 lb. fresh green beans, trimmed
1 tsp. onion powder
3 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
2 Tbsp. butter
1/4 cup water
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp. salt
In a saucepan, combine all ingredients and simmer 8-10 minutes until done.
