Directions:
Place bacon or chopped smoked ham in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until the fat begins to render and bacon crisps. Stir in onions and garlic; let cook for 1 minute. Stir in beans and water. Let the beans cook until the water has evaporated and the beans are tender. If the beans are not tender once the water has evaporated, add a small amount more water and let them cook until tender. Season with salt and pepper (to taste) and serve.

Personal Notes:
Makes enough for 4 to 6 people. It's the closest thing to KFC or Bob Evans smokey southern green beans that I could duplicate. I love these things as a meal by itself. You can use Trader Joes frozen green beans and get pretty good results too.
