NO-BRAINER FRENCH CUT GREEN BEANS
Like my glazed carrot recipe, I have another quick and easy vegetable side dish for those of us that want something good, quick, low cost and easy to cleanup after. It also will temp the picky eaters who don't enjoy the larger string beans and dislike watery vegetables as you cook without adding water. Little ones and school...

Steps:
- 1. PREP: - Keep all ingredients frozen (french cut green beans and bacon) until ready to use. - Chop onions. Fine onions cook fast and are tender. - Cut frozen smoked thick-cut bacon in half and then in thin (1/8-1/4) strips. - Open bag of french cut green beans. - Have red pepper flakes and salt ready.
- 2. Use a 10-12 inch skillet. Place teaspoon of oil in skillet and heat on medium high. Immediately add the bacon and push around for 30 seconds to separate the pieces. Add the onions to the pan. Saute' for about 1 minute. Add the frozen green french cuts on top of the onions and bacon strips. Don't mix. Do not cover, do not stir at this point. It looks like it's smoking, but it's just defrosting and won't burn in this stage on medium high to high heat.
- 3. About 2- 3 minutes in begin blending ingredients together, Add the red pepper flakes--this is a good time to do this because you can see how much you are adding. For spicier beans add more pepper flakes--some like it hot ! Add salt. Stir occasionally to check the bottom to insure no burning. You'll see the green beans get limp and still nice and green--taste and season to your taste and cook for 5-8 minutes. Turn off heat, but leave on the burner and get the plates ready to serve. Leftover reheats for a take- to- work meal or next day side.
FRENCH-STYLE GREEN BEANS
These beans are one of my favorite side dishes. I serve them at our church steak dinner. A smattering of onions can be used to pep up the mild flavor of the beans.-Hope Meece, Ambia, Indiana

GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE - NO CANNED ONIONS OR SOUP
If you're looking for an update to the classic green bean casserole, this is it. It's very fresh tasting. Adapted from a Penzey's spice catalog from several years ago. The cooking sherry is optional, but it really adds to the flavor.
