When I made the amazing meatloaf a while back I made 2, one for then one for the freezer. At 4 I realized I didn't have a plan for dinner so I pulled it out for tonight. When we had the first one Gerald wasn't overly impressed so I was prepared for him to grumble about eating it again. So I popped it into the oven, told Gerald I'd finish dinner when we got home and headed to the pond with Sadie to fish. We caught 10 little fish but she had a blast and thought they were fun to touch. When I got home a large portion of the meatloaf was gone and the green bean bundles were still sitting, uncooked on the stove. Gerald was raving about the meatloaf. (What the heck? It's the very same one as before, I mixed it, put half in the freezer half in the oven. lol) Anyway so I guess we're eating in rounds tonight. The first time I had green bean bundles was at my Aunt Anna's and I said they were so yummy you could almost serve them as dessert and I guess tonight they will be! So my recipe to share is the green bean bundles. Get your taste buds ready these rock!
Green Bean Bundles
3-14.5 oz cans whole green beans
8 slices bacon, cut in half crosswise,
6T butter, melted
1/2 C brown sugar, packed
2-3 Cloves garlic, minced
Gather beans in bundles of 10; wrap each bundle with a half slice of bacon. Arrange in a lightly greased 9x13 pan. Mix butter, brown sugar, and garlic in a small bowl; spoon over bundles. Cover and bake 30 minutes at 375 degrees. Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes.
