Green beans are such a “vanilla” veggie, as my kids would say (AKA: BORING). However, throw in some bacon, a little butter, sugar, and some savory flavors and you have yourself one addicting green beans recipe!
You can serve this simple dish up any day of the week, but it works particularly well on your holiday table alongside turkey, cranberry sauce, and other amazing side dishes like this old-fashioned pea salad!
