COUNTRY-STYLE GREEN BEANS W/BACON, ONIONS AND BALSAMIC VINEGAR
Isn't funny how we can take something perfectly healthy....and make it totally fattening?!! I've made green beans this way since....well, more than 20 years now, and wouldn't have them any other way! VERY flavorful, comfort food at its very best! Cooking time includes crock pot time.
