Another recipe from The Creative Gardener's Cookbook that I can't wait to try. It suggests serving this with steak or roast beef and potatoes.

1 lb green beans, rinsed and trimmed
2 -3 sprigs savory, rinsed and patted dry
8 slices lean bacon
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
Directions:
1. Fill a medium saucepan with water and add salt.
2. Bring to a boil.
3. Add the beans and savory and return to a boil.
4. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
5. Drain beans and remove savory sprigs.
6. Divide beans into 8 portions.
7. Wrap each portion in a slice of bacon, and secure with a toothpick.
8. Melt butter in a medium skillet; fry the bean bundles on all sides for about 3 minutes.
