These were great! I served them at Christmas dinner. I made them without the onion because two guests don't like onions,but will make them with the onion next time. THis is defintly a keeper for us.

Delicious! *wiping drool from chin* Heavenly! Of course, how can anyone go wrong with bacon, sugar, and green beans?? This recipe even works well with frozen green beans. Perfection in the form of a side dish. Thanks for posting the recipe!

These were wonderful! Reminded me of my grandma's southern beans growing up. I followed a previous poster and sauteed the onions with the bacon and added a little chicken stock, so easy and so yummy.
