Green Bean Bundles

Recipe #220655 | 40 min | 20 min prep | SERVES 2 -3 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: ~Nimz~

I fixed these for my DD and her BF last night and they loved them, as did I. They are pretty easy to put together and the flavors blend well. The presentation plated is very nice. These can also be served as appetizers, cold. Use whole green beans. Can't wait to try these with fresh blanched green beans this summer.

    Yum. Yum. Yum. Easy, different, easy, yummy, easy...you get the drift. A great way to make your green beans more entertaining. These are just yummy. We had them with burgers and they were a hit. Thanks for the GREAT recipe Nimz!

    These are SO delicious. I'm a green bean lover and this takes them to another level! I love the sweetness the brown sugar adds and the baked ham is perfect this tasty little treat. I made these for lunch and they were so yummy. They would make an impressive side dish for dinner guests.
