Green Bean Bundles: Crispy, Sweet-and-Salty Green Bean Wraps
A holiday classic in many families, these green bean bundles involve tender green beans, crispy bacon, and a sweet glaze.
Preparation Highlights:
Use tender green beans; blanch them to keep texture.
Wrap each bundle with parcooked bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Prepare a glaze with butter, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, and a splash of water to make it syrupy.
Assemble the bundles in a dish, pour the glaze over, and bake until the bacon is crisp and the beans are tender.
Tip:
- Can be assembled a day ahead; just bake when ready to serve.
