Grandma's Green Beans image

My beloved and very much missed Grandmother was always asked to bring these to family gatherings.. The woman knew how to cook, raising 8 kids, 6 of them being girls, I think it's fair to say- she had a PHD.. ;).. I only wish I had more of her recipes to share..

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
1/2 cup yellow onion (chopped)
4 (14 1/2 ounce) cans green beans (any brand)
1/2 chicken bouillon cube
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • Fry bacon til' it's crisp, on the stovetop. Add onion, cook until tender.
  • Drain "all" liquid off of canned green beans.
  • Add beans to bacon and onion mixture.
  • Add bullion cube and water.
  • Cook very slowly until beans "shrivel".
  • Sometimes, ok well maybe always I have this compulsive need to add things to whatever I am cooking, and 98% of the time you can beat it's gonna be GARLIC or SPICES. Soo- there ya' go. Add in some garlic if you dare, or maybe some seasoning salt? :) But whatever you do- ENJOY!

I like my green beans with a little bit of spice, so I added a pinch of cayenne pepper. It gave them a nice kick without being too hot.

I love the way the onions caramelize in this recipe. They add a sweetness that balances out the saltiness of the bacon.

The bacon in this recipe is what really makes it special. It adds a smoky, savory flavor that I can't resist.
