Feta and Bacon Green Beans – the perfect (and easy) side dish!
With Thanksgiving coming up this week, I am always looking for new side dishes to serve and these Feta and Bacon Green Beans are beyond delicious. My kids are not the biggest vegetable lovers, but green beans are one of those veggies, with a little doctoring up, they love. This green bean side dish is great to pair with your dinner or to serve at a big gathering – like Christmas or Thanksgiving! It is easy to make and definitely will jazz up those every day green beans and add some pizzaz to your meal!
They are SUPER easy to make (’cause you know me, I only do easy!) and the bacon, feta and vinaigrette will be sure to delight your guests!
Here is what you need:
- 1 pound french green beans
- 5-6 slices of bacon, diced
- 1/2 cup feta cheese
- salt/pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup of your favorite vinaigrette dressing
Here is what you do:
- Steam the beans until a fork can easy pierce through (about 10 minutes or so). Don’t over cook them, or they change color and look sad. (we don’t want sad looking green beans)
- While the beans are steaming, cook the bacon, blot the fat off with a paper towel and allow to cool. Once cool, dice the bacon into small pieces.
- Once the beans are cooked, transfer to a bowl, season with salt and pepper – taste it to your liking. Add the vinaigrett salad dressing and toss to coat.
- Top with the bacon and feta cheese.
- Enjoy!
