Lisa Week: Arkansas Green Beans

I don't know if she's ever been to Arkansas, but these are really good green beans. We had them at Christmas and it was nice to have something green on the plate. I'm going to try this with fresh green beans--guessing they need to be cooked a little before starting out, but I bet it's really good that way too.

Arkansas Green Beans

5 (15 oz. cans) green beans, drained
7 slices of precooked bacon
1/3 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. butter, melted
7 teaspoons soy sauce
3 garlic cloves, pressed and minced

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the drained green beans in a 9 X 13 in. baking pan. Lay bacon on top of green beans. Combine brown sugar, butter, soy sauce and garlic. Pour over green beans. Bake for 40 minutes.
Tomorrow we'll round out Lisa week with her yummy pretzel jello. Fun to serve for Valentine's Day! Have you subscribed to Comfort Food yet? The first issue is out today! Subscribe by emailing or leaving a comment below.
