  • salt and pepper to taste

  2. Lay out a half strip of bacon. Place a small bunch of green beans (about 6 or 7) onto the strip of bacon and roll up into a bundle. Place the bundle into the casserole dish, seam-side down. Repeat with remaining bacon strips and green beans. Sprinkle with brown sugar, salt, and pepper.

Cook’s Note

I set out the bacon, green beans, and casserole dish in a row like an assembly line to make it easier.

You can pack the bundles pretty tightly in the pan; just know that if the bacon touches another bundle, it can take some prying to separate.
