These are delicious! Took them to a family gathering and came home with an empty dish! Yummy!
Can I use jarred real bacon bits? I want to say I’ve seen the recipe somewhere but can’t find it🤷♀️Please help me
I’ve used the bag of real bacon pieces before. It’s a short cut, and really no difference. I use this recipe for a lot of our family gatherings. It’s requested. Add the soy sauce to taste. As well as the garlic powder and brown sugar. Just so you have them to your liking. I follow it as above. It’s great for my family. But then, we live in the south. Louisiana to be exact. We love all them flavors! Hope your family enjoys it too!
What do you do with the 1/4 cup melted butter?
Refer to direction number 3.
This recipe was not good. Made for Christmas. No one really “liked” it.
I ended up throwing the majority of it out.
In my opinion the soy sauce ruined it. It just had too much of a tangy bite and did not compliment the green beans or bacon. I followed the directions exactly. I will not make again. Very disappointed.
Sorry your family didn’t like it. Ours loves it
I make this monthly! Even in foil pans on grill in summer!
What makes them “crack” as you refer to them as??
I think it’s the brown sugar
You are suppose to love them like people who are hooked on crack. In other words you crave them like crazy because they are so delicious.
This recipe is so good! Sweet and salty, oh and bacon! Yum!
Tried this and was a hit at Christmas! Making tomorrow but forgot I needed cooked bacon….if I put in the bacon uncooked…do you think it will work ok? Just short on time so thought I’d get opinions on that…thanks!
I have a Scrapbook Retreat and I made these for several of my groups. They all have l❤very them! Thanks they are a hit!!!
could you sub liquid aminos for the soy sauce?
I would certainly think so
I subbed liquid aminos for the soy sauce and golden monk fruit sweetener for the brown sugar to make them keto friendly.
Try Worcestershire sauce instead of soy
I do not put the soy sauce in mine. otherwise same . We love them
If you use frozen green beans, would you recommend to boil them first, then bake as directed in this recipe??
That’s what I do.
Can you use fresh green beans?
How far in advance can this fish be made?
How would you make this recipe in the crock pot?
This is a fabulous recipe! I added mushrooms and my husband flipped for it!
These are such a quick alternative to “bundled green beans!” For those of you that don’t like the taste soy adds, use Worcestershire instead. So delicious, thanks for the recipe!
Can you make ahead if using can green beans and can you make in a crock pot?
