Ingredients:
| 3/4 pound | fresh green beans |
| 4 | bacon strips |
| 3 tablespoons | butter, melted |
| 1/4 cup | packed brown sugar |
| 1/4 teaspoon | garlic salt |
| 1/8 teaspoon | soy sauce |
Directions:
Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 8 minutes or until crisp-tender. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until cooked but not crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove to paper towels.
Drain beans; depending on the size of the beans, place about 8-12 beans on each bacon strip. Wrap bacon around beans and secure with a toothpick. Place on an ungreased baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, garlic salt and soy sauce; brush over bundles. Bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Yield: 4 servings.
