The flavor is indescribable. It exceeded all our expectations! I am posting this side dish because I want to encourage everyone to try this wonderful recipe. It is semi-sweet and very rich. Let me know what you think! Don't remember where I found it, but it's a staple at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and throughout the year. *The recipe calls for green beans, but I have only made it with Asparagus. Ingredients:
2 (15 ounce) cans asparagus spears or 20 ounces long green beans |
1/2 lb bacon |
2 cloves garlic or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed |
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine |
Directions:
1. Gently wrap approximately 5 beans or asparagus stalks with 1/2 slice bacon and secure with toothpick. Continue until all beans/stalks are wrapped.
2. Place in casserole dish.
3. Simmer garlic, brown sugar and butter for 5 minutes and pour over beans/stalks.
4. Bake at 375°F for 25 minutes or 350°F for 35 minutes (or until tender& hot).
