  5. Stir in the crumbled bacon.

Notes

For extra flavor, try adding a dash of hot sauce or a splash of vinegar. If you like crispy bacon, cook it separately and add it right before serving. You can experiment with different seasonings to suit your taste. To store leftovers, let the green beans cool to room temperature, then transfer them to an airtight container. They can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
