Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to broil, then place beans on a large baking sheet and drizzle them with 2 tablespoon olive oil. Broil beans for 15-20 minutes, or until they can easily be pierced with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon. Reduce the heat to medium-low, then add the remaining olive oil, garlic and tomatoes to the skillet and cook until the tomatoes are soft, approximately 2-3 minutes. Add bacon back into the skillet, then remove it from the heat.
  • Once the green beans are cooked, transfer them to a platter or large bowl and pour tomato-bacon mixture and the oil/juices over top of the green beans. Sprinkle with cheese and enjoy!

*Calories are per serving and are an estimation
*Serving size is between 4-8; if you're eating this as a meal it's 4, and if you're serving it as a side it's 8 
*If you don't want to turn on your broiler, you can grill the green beans instead: heat your grill to 425°, then place the beans on a veggie grate and grill them until they're slightly charred.
