1 pound fresh green beans
10-12 slices of thick-cut bacon
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Minced Garlic

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 ºF. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with non-stick spray.
Wash and thoroughly dry green beans (or asparagus), then season with salt and pepper. Bundle together roughly 5-8 green beans – this will depend on your size of beans and the amount of beans you get for one pound. Bundle together as many as you’d like! Using a slice of bacon, wrap it around the center of the beans to hold it together. Lay the bundle bacon seam side down in the baking dish to hold it together. Repeat with remaining beans. Mix olive oil and small amount of minced garlic. Drizzle over beans. Cover the bundles with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 10-15 (it took more like 25 minutes for me to get the bacon somewhat crisp, and I still ended up putting it under the broiler for a minute) minutes more, just until bacon gets crispy.
