Malaki's Green Bean Bundles



Photo by Bethany Tozier
Simple, easy, and one of the hits of this years Feast of Folkestone (scaled down to serve 8)-

1 pound of bacon
16 ounces of green beans
2 T Brown Sugar
Salt & Pepper to taste



  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a casserole dish.
  1. Set out the bacon, green beans and casserole dish in a little assembly line. Lay out a half strip of bacon. place a small bunch of green beans (6 or 7) onto the strip of bacon and roll up into a bundle. Place the bundle into the casserole dish, seam side down. Repeat with remaining bacon strips and green beans. You can pack these pretty tight in the pan, just know that if the bacon is touching another bundle they take some prying to get apart. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and salt and pepper.
  1. Bake in the preheated oven until browned and heated through, about 20 minutes.
