SNAPPY GREEN BEANS



Snappy Green Beans image

This is a recipe handed down to me by my mom. My husband and kids get excited when they see I have bought green beans, because they know they are in for a treat. As a lower fat option I omit the bacon, and cook the onions in a dash of canola oil. I save the bacon for when I serve it to company.

A nice little touch to plain ole' green beans!!! This really goes by your own taste buds, so if you want it extra 'snappy' add more vinegar!

The buttery and citrus flavors in this brightly colored side dish go with just about any entree. I enjoy it most when green beans are in season. -Tammy Neubauer, Ida Grove, Iowa
