Firehouse Green Beans with Bacon

I love canned green beans. I can't explain why, and I'm not even going to bother trying. I don't, often, eat the French cut green beans. I find them too stringy sometimes. ahem. 

At any rate, this recipe seemed super simple and bumps up the green beans a little for a side dish.

Turns out this was fantastic. I'd make it again in a heart beat. Though, if I'm being honest, I'd use cut green beans. They're my favorite.
