Tips & Tricks

Don't forget to place a cooling rack down first. I would also line your baking sheet with foil for an easy clean up.

How to make Bacon Wrapped Green Beans with Brown Sugar

1. Slice the bacon in half. Wrap the bacon around 4 green beans. Place on a lined baking sheet (put a cooling rack down first if you have one). Sprinkle bacon with brown sugar.
2. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until bacon is at desired crispiness. 

Substitutions

If you don't have regular bacon you can use turkey bacon instead. Also, if you don't have green beans on hand, you can swap out the green beans for asparagus.

Serving Suggestions

I love serving these green beans with a protein like these smoked bone-in chicken thighs or Air Fryer Petite Sirloin Steaks.

How to store

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
