SOUTHERN-STYLE GREEN BEANS

Serves 4

Ingredients

    3 slices bacon, diced
    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1/2 cup chopped celery
    2 garlic cloves, crushed
    2/3 cup water
    3 dashes hot pepper sauce
    1 16-ounce package frozen cut green beans 
     

Cooking Directions

In small skillet cook bacon until crisp.

Remove; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons bacon drippings in skillet.

Add onion, celery and garlic; cook and stir over medium heat until tender but not browned, about 3-4 minutes.

Add water, bring to boil.

Stir in green beans, bacon and hot pepper sauce.

Reduce heat, simmer 20-25 minutes or to desired doneness.
 

Serving Suggestions

Although green vegetables cooked crisp-tender is au courant, nothing can beat these old-fashioned, slowly simmered green beans. Try them with your next baked ham dinner; add scalloped potatoes, a gelatin salad and soft dinner rolls to the menu.
