I love this simple side dish. It’s a breeze to make and a perfect pair for just about anything! This is also the perfect weeknight Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas side dish to pair to your meals.
I always have been a veggie girl. My mom used to have a simple garden at the back of our simple home. I love sitting on the patio and watching her plant and harvest her vegetables. She has almost everything from herbs to leaf vegetables. We made salad together, and we experiment in the kitchen. I started cooking at a young age. My mom taught me everything I know now including this bacon and garlic green beans recipe. This has been my favourite since I was a kid. It’s incredibly easy and quick to throw together using only a few simple ingredients. I love pairing this with just about anything for a quick and filling meal any time!
