I bought beets at the Farmers' market to use in a salad. The greens were so beautiful, I figured I should use them. I used bits and pieces of other recipes, including my grandma's green bean recipe, and came up with this. You can use any kind of greens - spinach, collard greens, etc. If you would rather use bacon bits instead, add a little olive oil to the pan since you won't have any bacon grease.

Steps:
- Saute diced bacon in a large skillet until browned. Remove and set aside. leave a little grease in the pan.
- Turn heat up. Saute onions in the pan until starting to soften.
- Meanwhile, rinse greens and add to pan - there should be a little water clinging to the leaves. Saute in bacon grease until wilted.
- Add frozen green beans and stir together with greens. Turn heat down and let cook until beans are to desired consistence. (I like them a little firm, DH would prefer them much softer. Cook wins)
- Add sugar, vinegar, your favorite seasoning, oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Add bacon back to pan.
