Notes

Can I Make The Green Beans with Bacon Ahead of Time

Absolutely! You can throw this dish together the day before, cover it with plastic wrap, and all you will have to do is pop it in the oven when it comes time to start dinner.
I would, however, let the dish sit on the counter for about 30 minutes before placing it in the oven.

How to Store Leftover Roasted Green Beans

Place in an airtight container or cover tightly with plastic wrap. You can store it in the refrigerator for 2 days. (that’s if you have any leftovers!)
Once you are ready to reheat them, just place in a 350 degree F oven for about 20 minutes.

Can I Use Frozen Green Beans

Sure, if that’s what you prefer. Just heat them up in the microwave until thawed out and use as directed above.
16 ounces frozen will equal 2 cans of drained green beans.

Can I Substitute Fresh Green Beans

Yes, you can substitute fresh green beans in the green beans with bacon dish. Just trim and cut them as you normally would and boil them until tender.
You will need about 4 cups of fresh beans to equal 2 cans.

Baked Green Beans with Bacon Variations

Want to spice them up a little more? Add some sweet chopped onions to the butter mixture and fry until translucent.
Whisk in 2/3 cup of brown sugar with the honey and soy sauce for added sweetness.
