Fresh Green Beans With Bacon

"This easy side dish can stand proudly next to your main course instead of shrinking into the background. These bacon green beans are inspired by my crowd-favorite garlic green beans. This version takes things up a notch with a Dijon-kissed broth that reduces into a silky, tangy-savory glaze. The best part? It’s weeknight-ready so you can make it on a whim (or when you realize halfway through dinner that you forgot to plan a vegetable). Whether you call them green beans, string beans, or snap beans—this dish is a great way to use up garden excess. But if I am being honest, the bacon and onion ensure this is a side dish recipe I make all year round."
