Green Beans With Bacon
Fresh green beans are delicious just as they are but add bacon, onion, salt and pepper and they become amazing! I always have bacon cooked and chopped in my freezer thanks to my husband. I just let him know when my stock is getting low and he cooks up another 2#’s for me. That way I can add it to any dish in a fraction of the time. For this dish you could fry your onion with your bacon if you don’t have it already prepared. Have you ever tried adding vinegar to your fresh green beans? We do it every time and the combination of the beans with the bacon and onion with tangy vinegar is so good. Give it try.

That’s an interesting idea about keeping cooked bacon frozen and ready to add for flavoring. I wonder if it would also work well with vegetarian bacons?
I just researched it and everything I saw said yes! Let it thaw overnight in the refrigerator then reheat. It said cooked, you can keep it in the freezer for 3 months.
