Green bean bundles

image source
These are one of our family staples for holiday meals!  You'd be hard pressed to find a better way to eat vegetables than this, I can promise you that much. We were so ready to eat them so I didn't get a picture of the finished product, so I had to borrow the picture above.

Ingredients:
3 cans whole green beans
1 package bacon
toothpicks

Marinade:
1 stick melted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp garlic powder

Drain green beans and place in a bowl.  Cut bacon strips in half.










Wrap 10-12 beans with half a bacon strip and secure with a toothpick.









As you can see, I don't typically do 10-12...but I ended up with extra green beans so I probably should have.








Place bundles in a 13X9 baking dish.

Mix marinade well and pour over green bean bundles, Let marinate in fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight. Bake at 325 for 45 minutes.
