Delicious. My husband could not believe how tasty these turned out. He recommended we add them to our family Christmas Dinner menu (over his slow-cooked green beans and my au gratin broccoli/cauli bake). I didn't have bacon on hand (but I did have bacon grease). I cut up some ham lunchmeat and fried it with the bacon grease and the onions. I also used fresh green beans, following the poster's recommendations. We all had multiple helpings. Thanks you for the great recipe! We are trying with turkey bacon, tonight.

When I made these, it was the only time EVER that the veggies got eaten as leftovers along with all the other stuff the day after Thanksgiving. Making them again today for Christmas.

These were so good. But I would cut back on the bacon or bouillon because I found this to be a tad on the salty side and I love my food salty.

Had a wonderful taste. I used fresh green beans and can't wait to try them out of a can.

This remains the best recipe, I add 1/4 tsp. coarse black pepper for that "Indiana Church Supper" taste I grew up with. I double the recipe and freeze individual servings to take for lunch. They freeze well.

Used fresh haricots verts rather than canned green beans and shallot rather than onion. Boiled the haricots verts about 5 minutes, then immediately transferred them to an ice bath. Meantime, I sauteed the bacon, shallots and some minced garlic, then added the haricots verts just long enough to heat them through. Didn't use the bouillon.

If I could give this a ten I would! I made this for Thanksgiving and my husband and kids LOVED IT!! My husband said that noone can make green beans like his mother. That hers have such amazing flavor to them. After he tried it, he was in shock! He said they were better than his moms and he didn't think that was possible! He like it so much, he said I should get the recipe tattooed on my arm so I never loose it. Just so you know, I'm not doing that. LOL That is the ultimate compliment! Thanks for the amazing recipie.

This is a very good recipe. I followed it exactly as written with exception that I used dried minced onion with a little onion powder, instead of raw onion.
