Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
• 6 slices bacon, diced
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon honey
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Drain the beans and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, cook the diced bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet.
3. In the same skillet with the bacon grease, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper.
5. Add the cooked green beans to the skillet with the onion and garlic mixture. Pour the bacon dressing over the beans and toss to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the beans are heated through.
6. Transfer the green beans to a serving dish and sprinkle with the crispy bacon. Serve hot and enjoy!
