Green Bean Bundles of Joy image

To make green beans fit the new baby theme dinner, I baked them in little bundles, secured with strips of bacon. A few minutes under the broiler makes the bacon crispy. The dish gets its tang from Italian dressing, which the beans are baked in. -Ame Andrews, Little Rock, Arkansas

These green bean bundles were a little too salty for my taste. I think I would use less bacon next time.
